Everyone is so nice and friendly in the office. They make you feel very important as a patient. And my doctor always is an inspiration to talk to about my hearing problems and life in general. She has a wonderful bedside manner in the way she listens.
It is always a very good experience.I enjoy visiting Dr Cushing and I feel very comfortable with her.
Prompt, competent and very professional , but seems to be in a bit of hurry.
Very thorough Hearing Test. Results were reviewed and explained.
Responded immediately. To my problem and fixed it for me
Dr. Roach is very professional and kind. The receipcionist is vey collaborative.
I called to see if I could get in on the Monday of the snowstorm, 1/26. The office was closed. I received a call back early on Tues., 1/27 and was given an appointment for later that morning. Dr. Adam saw me at the exact TIME OF MY APPOINTMENT. Cleaned both Hearing Aids, ( they were loaded with wax), updated a program on same that had recently become available, checked to make sure the Aids were functioning properly and sent me on my way, in less than 30 minutes, all with a smile and good cheer. A perfect experience. Mike Curtin Mike Curtin
