Patient Centered Medical Home

“Patient-centered” means that you, our patient, are the focus of everything we do. “Medical home” describes what we want to be for you – a place to go for help with any health issues you face. Caring about you is your teams’ number one job. The care your medical home offers is all about you and your health needs.

You have easy access to care:

  • Our staff can be reached around the clock
  • You can get in touch with us by phone or through our secure patient portal, MyChart
  • You can schedule same day appointments

We’ll take the time to get to know you by:

  • Learning about you and your health
  • Listening to you and what’s important
  • Talking about your health care choices with you
  • Helping you understand your health conditions
  • Offering you tools to help you take care of yourself

Your health care team works together and will:

  • Get you help with specialist appointments
  • Talk to others involved in your care
  • Share test results with you
  • Access the largest collection of skilled providers in Maine
  • Make a smooth transition between everyone involved in your care
  • You
  • Your doctors
  • Your nurses

  • And many more

It’s important that you feel you can:

  • Ask us questions
  • Let us know if you are getting care from another doctor
  • Stop us if you don’t understand something

We’ll make sure that we:

  • Help you choose what care is best for you
  • Ask for your feedback on the care you are getting from us
  • Create a health care plan that will help you stay healthy
  • Make sure you leave the office with the tools you need to keep healthy
  • Help you set goals for your care, and help you meet your goals one step at a time
