Kathy shares her personal story. “I would ask people to repeat over and over and over. I didn’t know what to expect but it was easy and comfortable. The fitting was quick and got my hearing aids right away. I feel like I am now reconnected with all of the people I care about and work with.”
Michel – Lewiston Fire Department Chief – Noticed his hearing problems when he attended meetings and how it affected his ability to perform his job effectively. “It’s not only worthwhile, it betters your life when you come down to it.”
“At the moment this is not my Audiology go to because I live so far away. BUT the service given was so fantastic compared to closer places that I may change.
Debbie is happy, eager to listen, and very accommodating for the service I required on my aids.
Dr. Rutendo Chikuku quickly fixed my aids even knowing I was not a client. Explained everything and was willing to spend the time to discus options.
In a time when accountability and service are at an all time low in this country it is a true joy that I can give 5 stars. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.”

“I walked in because my tinnitus was driving me crazy. I couldn’t hear people around me and heard constant ringing 24/7 for years.
The receptionist gave me a very speedy appointment that was only about 5 days out at that time.
The staff were informative, pleasant and knowledgeable. They ask all the questions that I wanted to address before I could.
The testing was thorough. I was fitted for hearing aids and given choices of style and color.
Two weeks later I was fitted for my new hearing aids. Getting used to hearing again is a wonderful nucense. Life is far noisier than I remember! Lol! The hearing aids are awesome. They have an app that allows you to adjust tones and volume. My model also plays white noises to drown out the tinnitus. A very nice feature. They are rechargeable also. No batteries to mess with. They last all day and well into the night. They’re bluetooth ready so I can listen to music any time I wish.
Most appreciated feature is the fact that I can now hear people when they talk and I don’t have to ask them to repeat themselves.
The bottom line is if you are having hearing issues, do yourselves a favor and call or visit their local office. You will not only be happy with the outcome you will improve the quality of your life.
I sound like an employee but I am just a happy customer.”

“Central Maine Audiology is top-notch from the minute you walk in the door! It starts right at the front desk with a friendly greeting making you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in. I found Dr. Abbey Forcier to be knowledgeable, helpful, professional, and considerate. I knew that they wanted what was best for me and were willing to go the extra mile to walk me through the process and make that happen. Sara Smith was also the same, great team! I would highly recommend this practice, patient needs were #1! ”
– Patricia G.

“I 100% trust CMA with my ears. There is not a single quality of life enhancement investment more important than this. CMA are the pros that knows. DON’T DELAY ADDRESSING YOUR HEARING LOSS!!!!! Thankfully I heeded this admonishment. Climbing into quality hearing aids was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. CMA is standing with me for this entire journey. Their supply and maintenance program is outstanding. Last but not least, their no-interest payment program makes it all happen. CMA ROCKS!!!!”

“The folks at Central Maine Audiology are wonderful. Through their expertise and caring they have significantly increased my quality of life. My hearing had become so poor that family members were irritated by my constant requests for repeating their words and I couldn’t even hear the birds chirping at my feeders. Now that has all changed. I am hearing things that were lost to me for years. Music is more enjoyable, my family is happier and the sounds of nature are once again present in my life. So thank you all at CMA (especially Abbey) for your hard work and kind attention!”

“My husband David Boutot has suffered hearing loss for several years. We are so grateful for the above and beyond effort that Rita put into getting him in for an appointment in a timely manner when other offices said they had no time available for months. The technological equipment is top of the line accompanied by Dr. Abby who is an amazing and personable audiologist and has made Dave’s journey back to the hearing world a joy and a pleasure. Central Maine Audiology has completely changed our quality of life by restoring my husband’s ability to hear.”

“I had never been to Central Maine Audiology until today when I went with my husband to pick up his hearing aids. I could not be more pleased with this friendly, professional and patient group!
First of all, my husband HATES going to doctors of any kind. He had gone to another hearing establishment in the area a few years ago and refused to go back. So after a fashion, I finally got him to try Central Maine Audiology on the recommendation of a friend.
His attitude was positive when he came home from his first appointment, a vast change from the last outfit and I thought, THANK YOU!!! Maybe he will stick this one out, and he did.
Today, when we arrived to pick up his hearing aids, we were greeted with a beaming receptionist who made our day by being so positive and welcoming. Dr. Rich could not have been more patient, calm and knowledgeable. He fitted my husband for his aids and explained the all the details with a sense of humor and serenity. My husband loves being able to hear again and I love not having to shout and repeat! What a win-win.
If people are nervous about getting hearing aids, this is the place to come. The office is tastefully decorated with beautiful plants that mirror the serenity of the staff. I cannot recommend this office highly enough.”
– Candy Gleason

“5 stars for fine, consistent service & special care. Highly recommended. I’ve been a patient of Central Maine Audiology for over 15 years. During that time, I’ve had the opportunity to appreciate the trust and honesty and professionalism that they, as Audiologists, have provided me to aid in my hearing challenges.
My son suspected that I probably had a significant hearing issue. It took some coercing on his part, mostly because of financial concerns, but he convinced me to visit Central Maine Audiology. Bryce was very thorough with the examination. We reviewed a number of options. He helped me carefully choose my first pair of hearing aids, as I had nearly the same losses in both ears. No pressure. No rushing. Just competent, professional service.
Well, it’s been over 15 years. I can still remember that awesome moment when I could hear birds chirping in the morning when I stepped out of the house. The sound of the wind rustling the leaves through the trees when taking a walk. A whole new world of sound that I forgot about. It was a humbling experience. Central Maine Audiology helped me realize what I was missing.
Over the years, Central Maine Audiology has grown. I recommend Central Maine Audiology to everyone that I know. I consider myself an ambassador for all of the hearing aid technology available to you…and especially of the care offered at Central Maine Audiology. I believe that it matters who you put your trust in when it comes to your hearing health. I put that trust in Central Maine Audiology.”
