Sonova and its brands provide leading hearing technology for its customers.

💬 I am so happy with my implants from Advanced Bionics. I was born a deaf person, so I have never heard. My parents allowed this technology to be implanted in me without knowing if it worked or not when I was five years old, but it has worked wonderfully. Now, I have listened with my implant in the right ear, and I have learned to communicate by speaking my native language Spanish. I was able to study in schools for people with normal hearing, went to university, and got my professional degree. In 2018, I was implanted in my left ear with new technology, and it has been amazing. I am so happy to hear new sounds that I have never heard before. In my right ear, the implant I received in 1997 in Colombia sounds robotic. But in my left ear, the newer implant sounds acoustic. Listening with two implants is so potent that I now hear new sounds that I have never heared before. I decided to learn a new language such as English, and it has been a big challenge for me to listening and understand the new sounds in this language. Now, I am pursuing my Master's in Poultry Sciences at the University of Arkansas. I hope that I will continue on to pursue a Ph.D. degree, and improve my English skills.
