The International Center for Atresia Microtia Repair

The International Center for Atresia & Microtia Repair is the leading global facility for the treatment of congenital aural atresia and microtia. Dr. Joseph Roberson, a Board Certified Neurotologist with over 30 years of experience treating patients with this condition, has performed over 4,000 congenital aural atresia repair surgeries and thousands of hearing restoration procedures of other types for children and adults. We perform hearing restoration surgery as early as 3 years of age and have operated on patients from 75 countries.  In cooperation with our in-house microtia surgeons or surgeons from outside institutions, we work to maximize hearing during the crucial language and brain development period occurring between 3-5 years of age. Our congenital aural atresia repair techniques are compatible with all forms of outer ear reconstruction -porous polyethylene implants (Medpor ™, Su-por ™, Omnipore ™), rib graft, and external prosthetics. Surgery candidacy evaluation & personal video consultations are available for no charge for patients seeking treatment, along with pre-recorded educational presentations in multiple languages to assist patients in determining the best option for providing hearing.
