About the doctor
Dr Jun Wang is a Chief Physician and Professor in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery at Peking University First Hospital. She holds a doctorate in medicine and supervises postgraduate students. Since graduating from Peking University Health Science Center in 1990, she has worked in clinical care, teaching and research at the hospital. Her work in otology covers deafness, tinnitus, vertigo, facial paralysis, various forms of otitis media, ear tumours and malformations, surgery for otosclerosis, cochlear and other auditory implantation, ear microsurgery and endoscopic ear surgery. She helped revise the Chinese Medical Association's guidelines for diagnosing and treating sudden deafness. Through two cochlear implant charity programmes run by the China Disabled Persons Welfare Foundation, “Rebuilding Hearing” (启聪行动) and the Jishan Hearing Assistance Initiative (集善工程·助听行动), she successfully placed cochlear implants in nearly 100 children and adults with hearing loss. Peking University awarded her its Outstanding Clinician and Outstanding Teacher awards. If you are exploring hearing restoration, care for vertigo or a cochlear implant evaluation, the sections below outline questions you can discuss at a consultation. The care team needs hearing tests, imaging and an in-person assessment to determine whether surgery or an implant is needed and which treatment is appropriate.
Clinical areas
Hearing loss or deafness and questions about hearing restoration or cochlear implant evaluation
If your hearing continues to decline or you have been advised to consider a cochlear implant, you can discuss your hearing test results, when hearing aids or cochlear implants may be appropriate, and what to bring for an implant evaluation. The care team uses hearing tests and imaging to assess whether an implant is suitable and what the plan would involve.
Recurring vertigo and questions about its cause and treatment
Vertigo may be associated with several inner ear disorders. Describe what the episodes feel like, how long they last and what other symptoms occur. The doctor will consider hearing and vestibular function tests when assessing the cause. If you have benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, you can discuss options such as repositioning manoeuvres.
Otitis media, an ear mass or an ear malformation and questions about ear surgery
For chronic otitis media, an ear mass or a congenital ear malformation, you can discuss when surgery might be appropriate, ways to restore hearing and what to expect during recovery. The doctor will assess options using ear CT or MRI, hearing tests and previous treatment records.
Sudden deafness or tinnitus and questions about recommended care
Seek medical assessment as soon as possible for sudden hearing loss and bring previous hearing tests if available. If you have tinnitus, note when it occurs, what it sounds like and what affects it. This can help you discuss diagnosis and targeted care. The care team will determine treatment after assessment.
