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.

My hearing test was relatively quick and pleasant, and they shared the results with me immediately. Luckily, I still don't need any remedial hearing interventions!

Dr Richman did an outstanding job with my daughter. She was warm, patient and inviting. My child is nonverbal and struggles with developmental disabilities. I was pleasantly surprised when she was able to successfully complete the hearing exam, thanks to Dr Richman’s calming approach. Highly recommend.

I just went to get my impressions done for my custom IEM in-ear monitors, the hospitality is absolutely the most amazing, sweet, and heartwarming Ive ever felt and experience! The prices are also extremely affordable compared to other places around! I loved everyone there, they are all extremely special and sweet! I will definitely recommend this facility to other musicians like myself that are preparing to get their IEMs in the future!

The greeting I received by the two individuals at checkin when I entered the office in Woodbury for the first time was extraordinary!! Hands down, the best I EVER received in a medical facility. I then met with Lauren Barnett who performed a hearing evaluation. Her demeanor, professionalism and attitude throughout the process was top notch. She took the time to answer any and all questions and provided a wealth of information. I highly recommend if you're looking to ways to improve your hearing

Very disappointed! This is called a Tinnitus center, but it's not at all. The only product that is offered is a hearing aide. They should include more comprehensive treatments for Tinnitus other than the Widex hearing aide. Nothing more than audiologists , not about any Tinnitus treatments at all. I am responding to the owners response now. I called today to inquire regarding your response and no one called me back. According to the receptionist the only so called treatment for Tinnitus is the one Widex hearing aide. If that doesn't help or work nothing else from this center is offered or even discuss. This is not a tinnitus center. These are traditional audiologists who know nothing about Tinnitus other than selling a Widex hearing aide. I asked to speak to the owner etc., no one returned my calls.

The team at the Hearing and Tinnitus Center is fantastic! Starting with the front desk. They're caring and attentive to the patient. I started going to the center when I was first diagnosed wit Tinnitus about 3yrs ago. I've seen Dr. Erica Richman who's been nothing but wonderful. She's compassionate and understanding plus extremely knowledgeable which is refreshing. She did not tell me as I had been told previously by an ENT doc that I just had to learn how to live with Tinnitus. We came up with a game plan and we executed it and I've been extremely happy with the outcome. I can't recommend enough the team at the Hearing and Tinnitus Center.
