Thank you for your interest in 4Health Family Medicine!

After more than 20 years taking care of families in Southern Maine, in 2024 I made the big move to open my very own private practice.  Direct Primary Care allows me the opportunity to dedicate the necessary time to address all of the unique needs of each patient.
