Meet the Fermoy-based audiologist using AI-powered technology to transform the lives of those with hearing loss

Walker Hearing Clinics Fermoy is introducing patients to the power of AI with noise-cancelling hearing aids that make tuning into life easier than ever.

The Phonak Audéo Sphere Infinio is the world’s first hearing aid with a dedicated AI chip designed to separate speech from background noise quickly and clearly. This stylish and discreet device offers crystal- clear speech clarity from any direction, helping users keep up with the conversation even in the noisiest environments.

“The Audéo Sphere marks a new era in hearing technology,” said Graham Walker, Director of Audiology at Walker Hearing Clinics.

“It works by muffling background noise using artificial intelligence in the form of a deep neural network, which has been trained using millions of sound samples. Plus, it’s Swiss-engineered, guaranteeing the highest standards of quality.”

With more than 10 years of independent experience, the Walker Hearing team has earned a strong reputation as Cork’s leading provider of high-quality hearing aids and professional, compassionate care.

“Unlike other hearing care suppliers in the area, we don’t have any agreements with hearing aid manufacturers, so we’re free to supply only the best and most up-to-date technology,” Graham said.

Graham and his wife Amy currently operate three clinics across Cork, including at Fermoy Primary Care Centre, offering a comprehensive range of services including diagnostic hearing tests, earwax removal, hearing aid fittings and aftercare.
