World-renowned ear
surgeon posts free educational videos.
(Columbus, Ohio) 9/22/08 -- Dr. William H. Lippy, one of the foremost
expert surgeons in the field of hearing restoration today announced that
his non-profit foundation, the Warren Hearing Foundation, has posted
twenty-four separate streaming videos providing education, insights and
surgical examples from Dr. Lippy and Dr. Leonard Berenholz.
Dr. Lippy is founder of the Lippy Group for Ear, Nose & Throat located
in Warren, Ohio. He is an internationally recognized and much sought
after expert in stapedectomy surgery for treatment of deafness. He is
only one of a handful of surgeons in the world who has performed
thousands of stapedectomies, a surgery replacing one of the three tiny
bones in the middle ear, the stapes bone, with a prosthesis to restore
hearing.
Dr.
Lippy created "The Lippy Stapes Prosthesis", and many instruments used
in stapdectomy surgery, and has published over 60 peer-review papers and
a dozen book chapters over the course of his career. His efforts in
educating otologists and audiologists are internationally recognized.
Dr. Lippy also teaches and performs ear surgery abroad and was past
president of the Otosclerosis Study Group.

“The
opportunity to create this video series which really is the culmination
of my life’s work and provide it to the word via the web and video is
something very special to me,” Dr. Lippy said. “It took us almost one
year to complete the work, however, we hope the impact lasts a
lifetime.”
"We are
very pleased to be able to partner with Dr. Lippy in creation of the
video library," said Dave Weissman, owner of DKW Multimedia in Columbus,
Ohio. "The videos will create a legacy for Dr. Lippy and all the work
he has done throughout the years will be passed from generation to
generation."
"The
landscape for videos made it perfect for us to create the library," said
his son and executive producer David W. Lippy. "My father has spent
years helping others and this is another example of Dad doing everything
he can to make the world a better and more educated place. I feel
honored to have participated in the process of creating the online
library and can hardly wait to see the impact we can have all over the
world with Dad’s life work.”
