MEET:
Dr. Michelle Hu

Hi! I’m Michelle – the Pediatric Audiologist behind Mama Hu Hears. I was identified as DHH as a toddler, fit with hearing aids soon after and now utilize bilateral cochlear implants.

If your child has just been identified as deaf/hard of hearing, I need you to pause for a moment and recognize that you’re not alone.

I know this can be a scary time for you and there are a thousand questions you want answers to.

I’m here to help you navigate this new journey.

Dr. Michelle has been part of our family’s audiological team for almost a decade. We were already a couple of years into our hearing loss journey when we met her, and I can’t stress enough how much she positively impacted my children. As I worked through this course all I could think about was how much I needed this all those years ago (when my oldest son was first diagnosed). Everything that felt so overwhelming is clearly and lovingly distilled throughout the course materials! I am so grateful to know Michelle personally and I’m beyond thrilled for other families like ours to now have access to her wisdom, compassion and inspiration. This course is such a gift to parents of children with hearing loss!

Dr. Hu’s program for families of children recently diagnosed with hearing loss is an outstanding tool and resource. In addition to providing important information about pediatric hearing loss, her personal journey as an adult who has had lifelong hearing loss provides a genuine message of hope. As the parent of a child who is hard of hearing, I found this program to be well-balanced, informative, and easy to follow.

I am so thankful to have met Dr. Michelle and to have experienced her “Mama Hu Hears: Your Child Has Hearing Loss, Now What?” course. I am a parent of a hard of hearing child. My daughter was diagnosed with hearing loss at the age of 6 weeks old. She is 21 months old now and is thriving. Early in her journey, it was so difficult not knowing what she was experiencing or what her journey would look like in the future. However, through Dr. Michelle’s amazing content and program, I feel so much more empowered and educated on the things my daughter may be experiencing. Thank you, Dr. Michelle, for this amazing program. You are an invaluable resource and I am so appreciative of all the knowledge and support you’ve given me. Thank you!

As a two+ decade veteran who has raised three very successful children who were born deaf and who professionally has mentored, coached, and advocated for infants & children who are deaf/hard of hearing and their families at local, state, and federal levels, I know what Michelle shares in her courses will greatly benefit you. Even more importantly, how she shares will warm your heart. Michelle’s straightforward spirit of optimism and compassion will guide you from overwhelmed to empowered. Don’t delay and don’t miss the opportunity to hear this incredible voice of hope, encouragement, and inspiration!
