At Mandke Hearing Services, our audiologists work closely with doctors to support patients at every stage of care. Assistance begins with detailed hearing tests and continues through product selection, fitting, and daily usage guidance. Hearing rehabilitation therapy is often required to help the brain learn how to process sounds effectively. This process takes time and involves routine follow-ups. The MHS team provides continuous support and guidance at every step of the cochlear implantation journey.

A cochlear implant consists of two parts: the internal implant and the external sound processor. The external processor, worn over or behind the ear, typically lasts 5 to 7 years, depending on usage and exposure to sweat, dust, and moisture. The internal implant comes with a technical warranty of 10 years and often lasts much longer. The Mandke Hearing Services team provides ongoing guidance and support to help extend the life of the external components.
