Cochlear Implant Surgery

Discuss any general health problems with your surgeon. You will need a current blood test within one month of your surgery and complete history and physical examination. These will be arranged through our office to be performed at your pre surgical testing visit. Other laboratory studies, such as an EKG or chest x-ray may be requested. Additionally, if you have other significant medical conditions, please obtain a medical clearance from your regular physician. (pediatrician, internist, family doctor or cardiologist)
