Welcome to AIS
The University of Southampton Auditory Implant Service (USAIS) was established in 1990 to help severely to profoundly deaf adults and children. Since the programme began at this centre the surgeons have implanted over 2,000 auditory implant devices.

The service is closed weekends and bank holidays and the service is adjusted during University Closure Days which occur around Christmas and Easter.
