Mentor Information

My favorite thing about my AB Cochlear implant is
The technology available.
With my AB cochlear implant, I can
Talk on the phone, communicate on the radio, listen to music, carry on conversations with other people.
My favorite sound is
Music.
I chose AB because
They offer better technology then the competitors.
I am a BEA Mentor because
I had a mentor myself and it is one of the best things available.
I can help cochlear implant candidates by
Educating individuals about advance bionics, and answering whatever questions they may have about getting implanted.
