FAQ's

You can request a hearing test online here and our friendly team will be in contact to book an appointment that suits you.
A complete hearing test takes somewhere between 60 and 90 minutes and will include a number of non-invasive tests to get a full picture of your hearing and ear health.
You don’t need a referral for a hearing test however for children and young adults under the age of 16 will receive a Medicare rebate if they do have a referral from a GP.
Hearing tests range in cost depending on the type of testing. It is dependent on the age of the person being tested (i.e. newborn babies compared to toddlers or school-age children).
If you’re over the age of 60, we recommend you have your hearing tested each year so that you can pick up any changes to your hearing quickly.
Part of the cost of a hearing test can be covered by Medicare if you’re under the age of 16 and have a referral from your GP.
When you get new hearing aids, like any assistive listening devices, it can take a few weeks to get used to them. The main thing to keep in mind is that the brain has gotten used to living without certain sounds so with more sound around you it will need to learn to adapt to the different environmental sounds again.
