RE: [baha_anz]finding out about a Baha

Hi all

I was wondering about how you all found out about the Baha and then what prompted you to enquire and how you were referred? Did a family member encourage you to enquire?

 

It’s probably different for a cochlear implant but I read an article in the Reader’s Digest about Graeme Clark in 1995, kept it for 3 years and then went to my GP for a referral. She didn’t even know if CIs were done in Adelaide.

 

Regards

Hi all I made a comment in an earlier post about Baha being relative new technology. I was wrong. I didn't know that the first implant was performed in 1977,...
