Eastern Maine Medical Center serves communities throughout central, eastern, and northern Maine.

Under community direction, it has grown from a five-bed general hospital into a comprehensive, 411-bed medical center. The medical center and its medical staff of more than 300 physicians provide three-quarters of the primary-care hospital services offered in the Bangor area, as well as specialty and intensive services to the northern two-thirds of the state.

Our neighbors count on us as a resource for healthcare and health information, as a source of support and assistance for area physicians and other healthcare providers, and as a training ground for the health professionals of the future.

EMMC is an American College of Surgeons verified Level II trauma center and host of Lifeflight of Maine, a statewide medical helicopter service that transports critically ill and injured patients.
