About M.P. van der Schroeff, Dr.
Introduction
As a pediatric otologist I treat children with various serious middle and inner ear pathology. For example children with cholesteatoma for which extensive ear-surgery is needed. But also children with severe hearing loss who need a cochlear implant to restore hearing, offering them a chance to develop speech and language skills. Next to clinical work I aim to do research predominantly on acquired hearing loss in children.
Education and career
Since 2012 I am a staff member of the pediatric ENT department of the Sophia Children’ s Hospital, Erasmus MC. I am principal investigator within the Generation R study and Pediatric Brain Lab. Current president of the Dutch Society for Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery.
