Dr. Jay Crews is a pediatric dentist who has been in private practice for 20 years. He owns a large practice in Owensboro, Kentucky, where he lives with his wife who is also a pediatrician. Dr. Crews discovered that he had worsening and profound hearing loss during his pediatric residency. He began wearing hearing aids and dealt with progressive hearing loss until it got to the point where he was nearly unable to function. He spent his days at the office lip-reading and relying on his staff to help him work through appointments with both patients and parents. In 2022, Dr. Crews underwent surgery and received a cochlear implant in his right ear. He shares this story with us and tells us how much better his quality of life is now that he can hear again. After a decade of not being able to listen to the radio or have a phone conversation, he's listening to the Brews and Tiny Teeth Podcast on his way to work in the morning. This was a great conversation and it was a pleasure to have Dr. Crews on the podcast to share his story.
