About the Hearing Matters Podcast
The Hearing Matters Podcast discusses hearing technology (more commonly known as hearing aids), best practices, and a growing national epidemic - Hearing Loss. The show is hosted by father and son, Blaise Delfino, M.S. – HIS, and Dr. Gregory Delfino, Au.D., CCC-A, who treat patients at Audiology Services in Bethlehem and Nazareth, PA.
Growing Up with Hearing Loss
On this episode, Blaise Delfino interviewed Nolan Gardner. Nolan was born profoundly deaf with bilateral profound hearing loss. He was diagnosed at six months old, received hearing aids at seven months, and because the hearing aids provided little benefit in helping him develop speech, his mom opted for him to get a cochlear implant when he was three.
Nolan competed on the hit show "American Ninja Warrior" in 2016.
