In 1979, the Ear Research Foundation was established in Sarasota, Florida by President and Founder, Dr. Herbert Silverstein.

The Foundation was created out of his desire to continue research and development, and to contribute to medical education in a private setting in the field of Otolaryngology.

Through its mission of research, education and community care, the Ear Research Foundation has helped thousands of individuals with hearing loss and balance disorders.
