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 Ohio Hearing & Audiology by AudioNova, hearing tests are offered FREE of charge.

So far so good, I have always loved my new hearing aids. But, for some reason or other they quit working for me. I even tried to put a couple of different batteries in them. This is when I thought of Dr. Durst would be great to figure out what is going on with this problem. Please help me out Dr.

Dr. Durst is truly the best! He’s so patient and friendly. I’ve been putting off getting hearing aids basically my whole life, but I’m glad I have a doctor so patient and caring to help me through the process. He makes it clear that he truly cares about his patients. I would recommend him to anyone.
