Mark Lorigan is a patient at ListenUp! Hearing Center. He spent almost four years as a medical corpsman in the Navy. He has a bachelor’s degree in biology and worked in the pharmaceutical industry in medical sales for 27 years. He has experience with sudden and dramatic hearing loss and wants to help increase awareness by sharing his journey.
In this episode…Many people assume that hearing loss is a particular issue with only a few treatments. However, there are multiple causes that require specific care. Mark Lorigan was an average person before he discovered two layers to his hearing loss: fluid on his eardrum and gradual damage over a lifetime. Receiving treatment for the first helped show him the need for the second. In light of this, he wants to share his journey and encourage others to take the steps he did toward better hearing. Dr. Mark Syms invites one of his patients, Mark Lorigan, to talk about his hearing experience on this episode of the ListenUp! Podcast. Together, they break down Mr. Lorigan’s initial issues and how they revealed his untreated hearing loss. They talk about the immediate benefits, listening to the people in your life on health issues, and how people adapt to hearing aids over time.
