Colin L. Driscoll, M.D., investigates the preservation and restoration of hearing and the optimal management of skull base tumors.
Hearing loss is the most common disability worldwide. Dr. Driscoll studies and develops new surgical strategies to preserve hearing and works with implantable devices to restore lost hearing.
Patients with benign skull base tumors can choose among different treatment options. Dr. Driscoll's research team is investigating which choice may provide the best quality of life for a particular patient.
Dr. Driscoll hopes that quality-of-life research will better equip patients to choose the best management strategy for their needs and expectations.
Patients with hearing loss often delay treatment with cochlear implants or avoid it altogether because of the externally worn components. A fully implanted cochlear implant overcomes this obstacle, offers considerable quality-of-life advantages over existing devices, and may allow for hearing 24/7.
