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 Puget Sound Hearing Aid & Audiology by AudioNova, hearing tests are offered FREE of charge.

I am extremely disappointed that Puget Sound Hearing is not equipped with a "Hearing InstrumentTest Box". I went for six months having my Audiologist Sara Sommers, who is absolutely amazing, handle my case with patience. She even had me take a second hearing test followed up with hours of endless computer adjustments only to realize my new Phonaq hearing aids were defective creating distorted sounds in my ears. Sara Sommers and I finally discovered this unfortunate reality when she swapped out my defective hearing aids with loaner replacements. What a world of difference! My Audiologist Sara Sommers is only as good as the equipment she has to work with and that must include the "Hearing Instrument Test Box", as she would have tested the circuitry in my hearing aids before they were placed in my ears and saved a tremendous amount of time and money for your organization and myself!

Panicked after I dropped my new aide and it quit working, a quick visit with Jake solved the problem. A simple wire exchange reconnected the unit and all was well. Panic to calm, as it should be.
