Biography
Dr. Harris is a board-certified otolaryngologist head and neck surgeon, originally from Wisconsin, with fellowship training at The Ohio State University in adult and pediatric otology, neurotology, and cranial base surgery. He has advanced training in surgery for hearing restoration including the placement of cochlear implants (CIs), bone-anchored aids, brainstem implants, and implantable hearing aids.
