Pleased help support an important research study from Central Michigan University on medical appointment accessibility for deaf and hard of hearing adults.
If you:
- Are deaf or hard of hearing
- Are 18 or older
- Live in the U.S.
- Have seen a primary care provider (physician, nurse practitioner, or physician assistant) within the past year
..please consider taking this IRB-approved survey. The results may help improve accessibility at medical appointments for the d/Deaf and hard of hearing community.

Survey: https://bit.ly/DHH-MedicalAccessibility

Please share with others who may qualify. Thank you for helping advance accessibility!
