In this episode…Audiology and communication are neighboring fields but rarely overlap. Each has its own experts and expectations — however, few people know the importance of truly listening like experienced audiologists. Dr. Michael Page has worked as a pediatric audiologist and worked for multiple universities. He knows the realities of audiology and has applied similar principles in helping workplaces learn how to communicate properly. So how do these two fields intersect and what does that look like in the real world? Dr. Mark Syms talks with Dr. Michael Page about hearing technology, pediatric practices, and the relationship between proper communication and audiology. Dr. Page describes how he helps workplaces overcome their toxic tendencies and how he got started as a consultant. They also touch on the research behind cochlear implants and why not every patient is happy with theirs. Hear it all for yourself on this episode of the ListenUp! Podcast.
