Congratulations to Jacob Sulkers, an audiologist at Central Speech and Hearing in Winnipeg for his accomplishment in receiving the 2018 Faculty of Health Sciences Young Alumni Award of Merit from Western University. Jacob earned his Master of Clinical Sciences (Audiology) degree from Western in 2011 and since graduating has committed himself to making a difference in the daily lives of his clients and their families by providing them with support and expertise as they cope with the impact of hearing loss and disorders.
Of particular note, he has been instrumental in getting Manitoba’s cochlear implant and Universal Infant Hearing Screening programs off the ground, and in concert, contributed to the community by increasing public awareness of cochlear implants and early hearing loss detection. He appreciates the opportunity to help people in a way that truly impacts every aspect of their lives.
