Frequently Asked Questions
When should I use hearing protection?
You should always use hearing protection when engaging in high-noise recreational activities or work. These activities may include hunting, music concerts, motor sports, and/or construction. Noise-induced hearing loss can result from prolonged exposure to noise or a single, extremely loud event. The louder the sound, the quicker it can cause damage. If you notice ringing in your ears or temporary hearing loss after a loud noise exposure, the environment was too noisy and could be harmful. If that ringing or temporary hearing loss is persistent, it would be a good idea to contact us for a hearing evaluation.
Should I get my hearing tested?
If you suspect that you or a loved one may be experiencing hearing loss, it’s recommended that you seek help sooner rather than later. Hearing loss tends to develop gradually and is often noticeable to close friends and family well before the affected individual realizes it. Identifying and treating hearing loss promptly is crucial. Ignoring it could lead to significant long-term effects, such as increased risk of depression and dementia.
How much does a hearing test cost?
At Taylor Hearing Centers by AudioNova, hearing tests are offered FREE of charge.

Truly a life-changing experience, thank you to Moriah for restoring my hearing! I waited too long, should have come in long ago, but now that I hear things clearly I realize what I’ve been missing. I highly recommend Moriah and the Taylor/AudioNova crew, top notch and friendly folks! (and the cookies are delicious!)

Dr Taylor has spent a great deal of time with me over the past year getting just the right hearing aides and adjusting them perfectly. The other EMT in Mountain Home told me “hearing aides are expensive and insurance won’t cover them” and advised me to take an OTC herbal supplement. Wouldn’t even show me hearing aides! Worked with Dr Taylor and my insurance covered them completely, and they’re $4000 hearing aides that I control via Bluetooth with my phone!

It appears that the staff at Taylor Hearing Centers enjoy what they're doing because I'm always greeted by smiling faces and an occasional bit of humor, not to mention a cookie once in a while. Randi Fore is chatty, compassionate and thorough with the inspections, and Cheyenne (sp?) is always cheery and prompt in the execution of her responsibilities. For me, it's worth the drive to visit Taylor Hearing Centers.

I was very happy with the exam. Having no previous experience with HA, I was confused and uncomfortable with the salesman. He didnt warn me of the painful noises during the tuning of the HA. Offered only the most expensive model and commented that he hoped my husband would be "supportive" of my needs, and buy them for me. At my insistance, he set up a"trial" set, for two weeks. But the scheduler set it up for only one week. I go back in two days. I not looking forward to the visit.

We have been going to Tayler hearing for several years. Mostly, we are seen by Moriah. We love her! She's always attentive to my husband's needs with his hearing aid. We never have a problem getting in and if there's a problem with his hearing aid, they just say " bring it on in!" And it's fixed right away!
