Let's continue the conversation- send me a text!

Join me for a conversation with Dr. Sarah Sydlowski as we dig deeper into why cochlear implants are NOT the last resort for patients with the expanding criteria. In this conversation, we discuss the current referral guideline and walk through a case study to help dispel some of the common misconceptions about referrals.  Dr. Sarah Sydlowski, AuD, PhD, MBA, ABA Certified, CISC, is the Audiology Director of the Hearing Implant Program, Audiology Innovation, and Strategic Partnerships Director, and Associate Chief Improvement Officer at the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio.  Her clinical and research interests include implantable hearing devices, optimization of practice efficiency, and developing innovative clinical delivery models.  Dr. Sydlowski is the past president of the American Academy of Audiology and the Ohio Academy of Audiology.  She has also served on many other boards and taskforce for AAA and the American Cochlear Implant Alliance.  She is currently the co-chair of the newly formed Hearing Health Collaborative charged with developing a blueprint for changing the landscape of hearing healthcare.
