Alfond Center for Health

I always see such negative reviews so i wanted to add my own little experience. i had my first child at maine general 9 months ago, my nurses were AMAZING. one in particular named hannah made me feel so beyond comfortable and safe in such a scary moment in my life. fast forward to two nights ago i went back to the pediatric floor due to my son having a bad rash & rsv. this one nurse i had named Anna (maybe anne) was the absolute best with my son. he was sick and very impatient with all the constant blood pressure, oxygen level, temp checks and so on. but she distracted my son perfectly. she was so patient and so kind. i truly think these nurses deserve more credit because it’s such a hard job. these lady’s were phenomenal. 😩

A glorified chiropractor told my Dad to stop taking his blood thinners less then 2 weeks after having a stent put in when he went into the ER for a nose bleed. Go here if you wanna die they dont even have real drs in the ER.

I'm a retired registered nurse. Recently went for evaluation by their ENT doctor. The staff and the doctor were great. I'm grateful for the care I received.

Horrible health care. Wait HOURS for a bed in the HALLWAY and then HOURS for a small cup of water and then even MORE hours for a nicotine patch if you are a smoker. AND they barely check on you when you are in the hallway. The reviews you see online are LIES!!! If you go there to try to detox, they just make things worse because you are treated like a low-life AND you are treated like an INMATE instead of someone looking for HELP! When you are FINALLY brought to the detox section, it's even WORSE!! You don't even get to get any real food and order off the menu unless you've been there for 2HRS!!! Food and water are one of the most important things you need to detox!! ABSOLUTELY DO NOT RECOMMEND!!! GO TO BANGOR OR EVEN PORTLAND IF YOU CAN!!! Very few of the nurses or doctors actually care. If you're lucky you might get them. If not, you are just treated like an annoyance.

MGMC canceled my 4 hour appt without giving me notice. I had cleared my own schedule of 8 appointments to attend this one and I spent 12 hours without food or drink per provided patient instructions. MGMC's reason for canceling was that I needed a prior authorization despite having been fully booked and provided with patient instructions prior to the appointment. I was also told by my provider and MGMC that prior authorization was not necessary when I scheduled. MGMC's incompetence effected 9 patients not just one. I am now utilizing Central Maine Medical Center.
