I don't believe it.
Tinnitus Talk Support Forum
I understand your skepticism, but he is very knowledgeable. He diagnosed that I could restore hearing in my deaf ear by reviewing a hearing test from another provider. Additionally, he has a very high IQ, is a graduate of Stanford and UC Davis (graduating first in his class), and is now semi-retired and a professor. He does not take on new patients. I believe he is reliable and trustworthy.
The only reason I was able to see him was because of my neighbor. He went to school with the person and reached out to them.
It's called Orsicular Chain Reconstruction with titanium in my right ear. He said they could restore the hearing to 80-70 DB, and I would wear a hearing aid. He stated it would make my life better and offset the Tinnitus in the left ear.
