An award-winning physician and professor has launched MDHearingAid(R),
www.MDHearingAid.com ,
a company that provides affordable, high-quality hearing aids for people
with mild to moderately-severe hearing loss. As an attending physician in Otolaryngology (Ear, Nose & Throat Surgery)
in Munster, IN., Sreekant Cherukuri, MD, says he saw too many patients
with hearing loss going home without a solution. After evaluating
several hearing devices and sound amplifiers in the under-$200 range, he
found that most failed to work well on amplifying the human voice
clearly. Hearing loss affects approximately 36-million Americans. Untreated, it
can lead to depression, anxiety, paranoia and isolation, according to
The National Council on Aging. Yet, 28-million Americans who need
hearing assistance do not wear hearing aids. Half say cost is an
obstacle.
