Description:
Hui’er Hearing is a leading institution in the field of audiology. It has long been actively advancing hearing health through diverse initiatives, including comprehensive audiological evaluations, professional hearing aid fitting and intervention, as well as public education on hearing protection. By providing these services, Hui’er Hearing is committed to raising public awareness of hearing health and delivering essential hearing care to people of all ages, as demonstrated in its wide range of public welfare and professional activities.
To support the auditory and language development of children with congenital hearing loss, as well as educate parents of affected children on hereditary hearing loss and its solutions, Hui’er Hearing has partnered with multiple speech training centers, and Dr. Xu Hongyi has delivered numerous thematic lectures. As the events coincided with National Tree Planting Day, children with hearing loss learned relevant knowledge in the company of Hui’er audiologists during tree-planting activities, making it easier for them to understand and accept their hearing conditions.
The senior audiology team of Hui’er Hearing has provided hearing services in many cities and rural areas across China. Committed to delivering comprehensive, age-inclusive hearing healthcare, the team focuses on children with congenital hearing loss to support their auditory and language development, educates their parents on hereditary hearing loss and evidence-based interventions, and also fully addresses the hearing needs of adults and older individuals. By serving all age groups comprehensively, the organization demonstrates its strong determination to improve public hearing health nationwide.
To assist people with hearing loss, Hui’er Hearing has actively cooperated with local federations for persons with disabilities and donated a large number of hearing aids across the country, with a special focus on supporting children and elderly individuals with hearing loss from low-income families. These public welfare initiatives have significantly improved the quality of life for many patients, helping them communicate better and integrate into social life.
Professor Wang of Hui’er Hearing specializes in the hearing health of children with large vestibular aqueduct syndrome (LVAS). He provides professional hearing management for these children and delivers personalized treatment and rehabilitation guidance for potential hearing fluctuations. In addition, he conducts scientific research collaborations with top universities in China to develop more effective and evidence-based hearing management protocols for this condition.
Audiologists Shi Wendi and Dr. Xu Hongyi have long been engaged in frontline clinical practice, providing hearing evaluations, diagnosis, intervention, and rehabilitation counseling to patients from numerous cities across China. With solid professional expertise, they serve the full spectrum of age groups, children, adults, and older individuals and deliver high-quality, precise care to every patient.
Audiologist Mr. Shi was invited to a conference and delivered a special report on bimodal hearing intervention for children. He elaborated on how bimodal stimulation (one ear with a hearing aid and the other with a cochlear implant) achieves synergistic hearing, helping children with hearing loss gain more natural and clear auditory perception, supporting their auditory-language development and social communication. This marks an important advancement in clinical pediatric binaural integrated intervention.
Hui’er Hearing has built a comprehensive hearing service system integrating public welfare support, health education, technological research, and clinical practice. With the mission of improving the quality of life for people with hearing loss, it continues to advance the field of audiology and safeguard the health and well-being of hearing-impaired patients across China
