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!
I am a 78 year old hearing impaired Villager. Been wearing hearing aids for over 50 years and one cochlear implant for 19 years. Don't waste your time elsewhere! I highly recommend UF at the Oaks Mall in Gainesville, where there is a staff of doctors of Audiology and Otolaryngology. Get thorough hearing test and evaluation, find out if you are possibly a candidate for a cochlear implant.
