acoustic neuroma

An ENT doctor diagnosed that I have a 1.5 cm slow growing acoustic neuroma (based on MRI and ENG) and need to find an otoneurologist. I still have some hearing in the affected ear. Will that require surgery and if so, will I lose my hearing in that ear completely?

Also: Does anyone have any recommendations for the NYC-NJ area.

Thank you!
