How will I be taught the procedure?
EarWell™ was designed to be simple enough to learn by watching the EarWell Training Video. When ordering EarWell for the first time, the product is delivered with a DVD Training Video and a silicone ear prosthetic. Physicians report that practicing the procedure with the provided ear prosthetic while watching the Training Video enables them to competently conduct their first EarWell procedure. These accompanying physician Web pages also provide additional information and instruction in conducting a standard procedure, as well as nuanced procedures. Additional assistance is available by calling Becon at 630-357-7374.
