Yes: Why not? Severe sensory impairment is a problem in day to day life. People with disabilities overcome this be successful in their ventures.

Definitely : I know audiologists with varying levels of hearing loss and even those with cochlear implants for profound deafness. I think it helps some deaf patients feel more comfortable to work with healthcare providers who have first-hand knowledge of deafness.
