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 Empire Hearing by AudioNova, hearing tests are offered FREE of charge.

Doctor McNicoll(sp) and office staff were pleasant and helpful. I was not expecting to go home with a trial pair of hearing aids so was a bit overwhelmed I did not have time to think about it. After couple days I am not convinced they are helping.

I went there for a hearing evaluation and consultation. Kim and Dr.McNicholl are extremely nice and friendly. I called in the morning to see if they have any available appointment and Kim was able to schedule me right on the same day. At checkin, my health insurance didn't work but Kim kept trying for multiple times. In the end, my health insurance still didn't work but Kim told me ahead that this visit would be FREE of charge. The hearing test was smooth. Dr.McNicholl was very professional and made sure that I was aware of the process and knew the instructions. The results reviewing process was informative and smooth as well, and Dr. McNiocholl made suggestions and recommendations to my needs. Overall, this is a very good experience! Highly recommended if you need hearing assistance/advice!

Very friendly and accommodating. Receptionist filled out questioneer form as she asked questions, making the process quick and easy so appointment may focus on time with doctor instead of filling out paperwork. She even made me a coffee with the nice Keurig set up they have in the waiting room. Doctor was super nice, making instructions clear and the whole testing process comfortable and safe when entering the test room. Highly recommend.
