AB Masterclass: Well-Hearing is Well-Being

On the 2nd of August, we had the pleasure of hosting a masterclass at Sonova’s Singapore office centered around the theme “Well-Hearing is Well-Being.” The event featured two distinguished speakers: Janani Jeyaraman, a specialist in auditory rehabilitation for pediatric and adult cochlear implant users, and Nicole Da Rocha, an expert in transdisciplinary hearing healthcare. 

The masterclass covered several critical topics. One highlight was the discussion on Cognition and Hearing, where we explored the link between hearing loss and dementia and introduced the Cogstate Brief Battery. Another key focus was on Future Trends in Aural Rehabilitation, offering insights into how technology, such as VR games, is being used to train spatial hearing skills in children. Additionally, the event shed light on Adult Living Guidelines, providing an overview of the patient journey for adults with cochlear implants and underscoring the importance of regular hearing screening.

We were delighted to welcome professionals from major hospitals, including Singapore General Hospital, National University Hospital – NUH, Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH), Changi General Hospital (CGH), and Khoo Teck Puat Hospital, as well as representatives from private therapy providers like Speech Therapy Adventures and Hear My Voice. The collective expertise and engagement of all attendees significantly enriched the discussions.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who participated and contributed to this event. Together, we are making strides in advancing the field of hearing healthcare and promoting the essential role of well-hearing in overall well-being.

BryanRichmond-Testimonial
The Voice of two Generations in Singapore radio, Mr Brian Richmond, has chosen The Listening Lab to be his audiology and hearing services provider. We could not be prouder!

Brian is the definitive household name in English Radio since the early years of Singapore's founding, starting with Rediffusion followed by Radio One and now with Gold 90.5FM as well as Vintage Radio Singapore. His honeyed voice and selection of music filling our ears as we lived the bustle of our daily lives.

Soccer fans from the Malaysia Cup era of soccer will never forget his heart-pounding commentary from "live" matches, as we experienced the ups and downs of the Singapore Lions in the 1970s to 90s.

Our Executive Director Kelvin Lee is proudly beaming ear-to-ear in this photo with Brian. But you wont be able to see it through the masks!

JonathanPo-Testimonial
I started experiencing loss of hearing sometimes in 2010 (41 years old) owing to some medical issue. I was having difficulties hearing conservation especially in meeting. Thus, giving me the fear in attending meeting.

Initially I started with Phonak hearing aid. It helps amplified the sound and I could hear better then. Somehow, my hearing loss deteriorated further that in late 2012 (43 years old), there was profound loss of hearing on my right ear. Even digital hearing aid could not help. On my left ear there is still about 50% to 60% hearing with hearing aid. I was lost at this point of time. I was considering learning sign language. I went to see my ENT specialist and my audiologist Mr. Bala advised me to go for an CI as an alternative to my hearing loss.

I also thank God for Engineer and Scientist, giving them the knowledge to create such a complex and sophisticate device to help those with hearing loss like me. It will be all perfect if the cost is affordable too.

She is very knowledgeable, and friendly, and we are encouraged to ask questions. she is also very patient with old people which is the most importance. Also her after service is superb so I highly recommend.

TitusPang-Testimonial
Titus was implanted when he was 18 months old. He is a happy, talkative 6.5 years old now. AB has been with him for 5 wonderful hearing years and we are looking forward to a bright future that lies ahead for him. AB’s Naída CI sound processors are reliable and the technology is constantly evolving and upgrading. When Titus was introduced to Naida Link CROS, his life was enriched. The wireless network established between his Naida CI sound processor and a Naida Link CROS transmitter allows him to hear from both ears. This changes Titus’s life and the way we interact with him. We are also very pleased with the prompt response and service provided to us. The staff in AB genuinely cares! We want to thank AB for making Titus’s hearing journey an enjoyable and a relatively stress free one!

I have been living with progressive hearing loss for more than three decades. Socially, I find myself fearful of communicating with people and at home, watching 'soundless' television programs is a norm.

An unforgettable experience. Trying on a pair of Resound GN hearing aid, I was energized and revitalized and overwhelmed with emotional tears of joy. The Resound GN is truly remarkable and uniquely equipped with three-friendly-user environmental modes that provide hearing comfort wherever we are.

In particular, I like to extend my utmost gratitude to Hearing Consultant. With her profound compassion and wisdom in guiding me, I am confident that I can forge a formidable partnership with the Listening Lab; So that I can rebuild a new chapter of a happy and value-creative life and simultaneously, leaving behind the painful memories of the past three decades.
