I want to go to an otolaryngologist (one step above and ENT doctor) to see if there is something blocking my hearing in my head. Has anyone been to such a doctor in Florida . I am willing to travel. Maybe a cochlear implant. I just don't know.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
When you cannot understand words being said, hearing aids will not help you. I'm speaking from experience as a long-time hearing aid wearer. Fortunately, I researched Cochlear Implants and after being tested by Dr. Davis of Davis Family Hearing who have an office in The Villages 352-666-8910 it was determined that I was a candidate for an implant. My implant was activated three years ago and my word comprehension went from18% to 98%. It was that dramatic. I highly recommend that you contact Davis Family Hearing and get tested to see if you qualify for an implant. It will change your life.
