Frequently Asked Questions

Who can get a cochlear implant?

Children and adults with severe to profound hearing loss who don't receive significant help from hearing aids may qualify. Doctors need to check hearing and speech before giving the green light. Hearing tests and how well someone understands speech decide if they're a good fit. Hospitals in Thailand conduct thorough check-ups before recommending surgery.

Is cochlear implant surgery a standard procedure in Thailand?

Yes, Thailand stands out in the region for its cutting-edge surgeries to restore hearing. Many ear, nose, and throat centres perform these implants frequently. You can receive this treatment at private hospitals and those affiliated with universities. Thailand attracts patients from all over Southeast Asia and beyond.

Is the implant turned on right after surgery?

No, doctors typically activate the implant 2–4 weeks after surgery, allowing the area to heal. At the activation appointment, they hook up and set up the external sound processor. This initial mapping marks the start of a series of fine-tuning sessions. Audiologists in Thailand walk patients through each part of the process.

How long should I wait to travel after CI surgery?

Most patients can travel within 3–7 days, depending on their rate of healing and the distance of their trip. Doctors might suggest waiting until the first activation or check-up. Flying is generally safe. Doctors give the okay to travel based on how well you've recovered.

Do Thai ENT surgeons have experience with cochlear implant surgery?

Yes, many receive thorough training from other countries. They attend global hearing meetings and workshops. Leading ENT units do tens to hundreds of CI operations each year. Research the qualifications and inquire about each surgeon's track record.

Do Thai hospitals offer speech and hearing therapy after surgery?

Yes, renowned centres employ audiologists and speech therapists on staff. Recovery work begins immediately when the device is turned on and continues for several months. Therapists who speak multiple languages help foreign patients get used to the device. Recovery work plays a crucial role in maximising the benefits of the implant.

Can I speak with the doctor before I travel to Thailand?

Most hospitals allow you to meet with doctors online if you're travelling from abroad. You can send in your records, see if you qualify, and plan out your visit. Some hospitals provide a guide to help you through everything.

What support does your hospital provide to international patients?

Many hospitals have departments specifically for international patients that offer translation services, assistance with accommodations, and guidance on local transportation. Staff who speak English are available to assist you at every step. Some plans include airport pickup, hotel booking, and assistance with visa applications. Medigence can help you with a comprehensive treatment plan.

How do you program the implant after surgery?

Post-surgical programming, also known as “mapping,” is performed using specialised software. It adjusts the implant to your hearing needs. Audiologists in Thailand typically provide 3–5 mappings in the first few months. The settings are adjusted based on speech recognition and comfort.

Can the implant be serviced in my home country?

Yes, global manufacturers offer international warranty and service support. You can continue mapping and therapy in your home country. Ask your doctor for a referral to centres abroad. Thailand hospitals provide complete documentation for continuity.
