At the forefront of hearing health science
Most of us have wondered which of our five main senses we would rather lose if we had to choose. While pondering this question it usually becomes clear that all our senses play a vital role in our everyday lives.
Hearing and balance are two senses we take for granted, but when they don’t work properly, we soon realise how essential they are to our well-being. A problem with either of them affects our quality of life. And because it can be difficult to find the right information about hearing loss, the Neurosensory Unit was established as a service to you and your doctor.
