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 AudioNova Grand Rapids, hearing tests are offered FREE of charge.

My grandmother recently had an appointment at AudioNova and we had an absolutely wonderful experience. Dena Barton was amazing—she was kind, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. She took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure my grandparents felt comfortable and confident throughout the entire visit. They genuinely loved the experience and it meant so much to our family to see them treated with such respect and care. We highly recommend AudioNova and especially Dena Barton to anyone looking for excellent, compassionate service.

They instrument specialist Dena was extremely rude from the time we walked in the door. She was rushing my elderly mother threw her exam and afterwards when explaining her results kept restating how my mom can't hear in one ear and it would never come back which scared her. It was the approach and dismissive behavior. She heard the door open in the front and basically dismissed us again to go greet the next client very pleasantly. When she came back to the room she began to tell us how much the hearing aides may be without insurance like we didn't have any which felt like an insult. But at the end before we left she then said she was not a dr and if we go to one now it wouldn't be anything they could do for my mother which mafe no sense if she wasn't a dr. We will not be back. Only gave one star because it wouldn't let me post without it

This office of HearMichigan is tucked into a strip mall on 29th st. My visit was quick since I did not have any issues. I was taken aback by the steep co-pay since I had not had any co-pays in a previous office. The staff seemed well trained and cordial.
