"I wanted to stay in contact with people."
My name is Kurt, I am a unilateral implant user and I come from Vienna. I was deaf for 33 years due to Meniere's disease (a serious inner ear disease). It was only by chance that after all these years I came to Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Gstöttner, who finally changed my life completely. He told me about cochlear implants for the first time and I decided to take the plunge. Since my implantation, I am finally back in the world of the hearing. I will never forget how it felt when I was able to hear a sound again for the first time after 33 years of silence on 23.05.2022. I have been getting better and better ever since.
My most important tip
I would like to encourage all those affected to opt for implantation as soon as possible. You shouldn't underestimate how valuable hearing is and it's never too late.
