Cochlear Implants Institute , S.A.


The Cochlear Implant Institute was founded by Dr. Cynthia Guy to coordinate and integrate the services of a multidisciplinary team in the identification, surgical planning, and the respective rehabilitation of their patients with auditory problems.

The team consists of qualified professionals in various fields: otorhinolaryngologists, audiologists, psychologists and social workers.

Additionally the IICSA relies on the experience, the know-how and the support of the maker of cochlear implants Medel, which has formally made on agreement to assist in the development of an international community linked to auditory problems to be recognized in Latin America.

The Institute’s affiliation with the City of Knowledge and its alliance with Medel strives to utilize this great potential to consolidate an international program unique in its class not only in Panama, but in the entire region of Latin America.

MISSION
Introduce and consolidate in Panama, the interdisciplinary technological and professional expertise to perform cochlear implants and the corresponding post-implantation therapy, in order to provide the sense of sound to deaf infants and children, and to adults suffering from severe or profound hearing loss.

VISION
Establish ourselves in the Panamanian and Central American communities as a recognized center of excellence in the attention to the hearing impaired, employing state of the art technology and the corresponding specialized post-implantation therapy.
