Listen today as Listen as Dr. Hu and I discuss why over-the-counter hearing aids aren't appropriate for children and why a child should see a pediatric audiologist.
Dr. Michelle Hu realized that as her pediatric audiology patients started growing up and having children of their own they had a different set of questions than when they were her patients, so she decided to create an Instagram account called mama hu hears.
She’s also created an online program for parents of children who are deaf and hard of hearing. Not to tell parents what to do, but to offer all of the resources, information, different modes of communication, languages to have access to and healthcare specialists to get in touch with, and give them all of the ingredients so that they can make the best choices for their hearing journey with their family.
This podcast is intended for families to share their own personal journeys without judgment. The stories they share are their own. Their stories are their own personal beliefs. Please respect and honor each family's choices.
The professionals and others who share their own opinions.
All information presented is educational and should not be misconstrued as personal medical advice.
It’s the responsibility of the parent or guardian or self to seek medical attention if there are concerns for a child or self including asking their healthcare personnel about any clarification that may apply to their concern or situation.
This podcast is meant for education and should not replace clinical recommendations or judgment of whoever is evaluating the patient.
