Opera singer who hid deafness for 30 years hails ‘life-changing’ surgery

Janine Roebuck, a 72-year-old opera singer from London, underwent double cochlear implants surgery to restore her hearing after hiding her deafness for over 30 years. The surgery has been described as 'life-changing' and has the potential to become a standard procedure for thousands of NHS patients. The method is currently being trialled nationwide.
