Spector's research focuses on cochlear implants and hearing-related care, particularly examining how patient characteristics such as comorbidities, marital status, cognitive function, and social networks relate to outcomes like speech recognition, tinnitus, and quality of life after implantation. The work is largely clinical, drawing on patient outcome data from otolaryngology practice settings, with some additional work on pediatric surgical case reviews and unrelated orthopedic topics.
