Machias – Down East Community Hospital is pleased to announce that our newly expanded and renovated Orthopedic Building is complete and open for patients.
CEO, Steve Lail, on the expansion, “The original building could no longer accommodate the growth that was taking place in the practice. The providers and staff needed room to do their work and the close quarters made it difficult for patients to navigate. Something had to change; we needed to expand. This new space is great for our providers and staff but most importantly, because of easier access to the building and exam rooms, it is great for our patients.”
The expansion project that broke ground in early spring more than doubled the space of the existing building. There are now seven spacious exam rooms, an office for each provider, a large waiting room, three bathrooms, and a fully furnished breakroom for staff.
An open house will be held on June 29 from 4:30 to 6:00pm. We hope you can stop by take a little tour, meet the staff, and enjoy some refreshments.
