Maine Medical Center

My initial visit was due to shoulder trouble. From the first 5 minutes in his office I felt more comfortable and trusted him better than any other doctor I had ever had. He listened, answered questions and didn't rush me out the door. I did have shoulder surgery and my care has been excellent; it...

The doctor and his staff were great! all my questions were fully answered and I was left with a sense of well being about my choice of surgeons. The operation went well and the recovery was a piece of cake. I would highly recommend Dr. Colacchio to anyone, including friends and family.

He listens, takes his time, and does what he can to help. I have been a patient for over 10yrs. He is my savior!

I have seen Dr. Weisburg for over a year following my breast cancer diagnosis. She is personable and very patient centered. I feel I receive excellent care from her

This man is extraordinary! Thanks to him, I have a new chance at life.

I bless the day I was referred to Dr. Kahn as he saved my sight by removing a tumor that was growing and other eye specialists gave me only a small chance of saving my sight. It was a very delicate operation, but I came through great and bless him every day that I wake up and can see. I can only say...

Dr. Ritvo is very knowledgeable and patient oriented. The best patient experience I have had with a doctor.

This is my second surgery with Dr. Weisberg. Both were professional and healing was beyond well. I recommend him to all my friends/family. Listening/bedside manner could not be better. He knows what he is doing and good at it! Very trusted!

Dr Kahn performed upper eye lid surgery on me. My lids were drooping so far down that it was seriously affecting my vision. Great outcome! I think he’s personable and professional!

Very through and gave a simple answer to all of my questions. I would recommend Dr. Scholl and her group to anyone with a child.

I was completely overlooked with my heart condition until I met Dr Wight, he is very thorough and saw that I needed treatment for HOCM immediately he truly wants to help people feel better and have a healthy lifestyle

Dr. Agren is very attentive, caring, and makes you feel very comfortable...Does not rush you, and wants to hear anything you have to say, or concerns you may have...I was very pleased with him..

Dr Barth completed a cervical spine surgery at C-3 C4 level in March 2018. He changed my life!!! He is a reassuring, confident caring person and for me, the absolute best surgeon from south of Boston to Portland Maine. A first opinion of my spine at the Lahey Clinic concluded that I was not a...

This is my very first experience every having plastic surgery and I am so glad I chose this place. All the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. Everyone goes out of their way to help with whatever you need. I had extra skin removed from my arms and the surgery went perfectly. Very pleased with...

Dr. Verlee is fantastic. He has a great sense of humor, good bedside manner, and communicated very clearly with me. He performed my vasectomy, and made me feel comfortable throughout the process and it went off without a hitch. Very professional and I would recommend to anyone

As my cardiologist, she was inattentive during visit, then pushed me off to her family medicine nurse practitioner and could not get an appointment with Dr. Iskandar for an annual follow up. After several attempts to reach Dr. Iskandar through St. Mary's portal system to report symptoms, Dr...

Incredibly nice person and an excellent surgeon and the people he works with are the best. Quad bypass and home on the fourth day after surgery. Painless and fast recovery. After twenty years of restricted life style due to cardiovascular ailments, I am back to living a healthy and energetic life.

To start with I had Dr. Rodrigue way back in 3-17-2009 for a core decompression on my left knee, which came out great, and he said probably will get me by till I need a replacement. He was right on target, he said 10 years, it gave me an extra year. I had my knee replaced Nov. 27, 2019, being a...

I have been a patient of Dr. Gartner’s for many years. She is wonderful. She truly listens to me, looks me in the eye and ANSWERS my questions! Her practice is evidence based and patient centered. She has a good bedside manner and a reassuring presence. Her knowledge is comprehensive and she keeps...

I highly recommend Dr. Stephen Barr. He is kind, understanding, and compassionate. My right hip replacement surgery went beautifully. He is a meticulous and highly skilled surgeon. He will do my left hip surgery. Also, his office staff is great and very professional Thank-you.

Best doctor ever. Very thorough and knowledgeable. She diagnosed my condition that many doctors missed despite extensive testing

Dr Colacchio is a superb joint replacement surgeon and his remarkable success statistics with extremely low complication rates bear this out. I am a physician who had a completely successful total hip replacement by him and couldn’t be more delighted with his work and his excellent team. I do...

You claim to care my wife has waited two days no call back her health is important but you do not care

First, I had to randomly choose of the docs in the practice which is a bit unfair, but I've never had a visit here though my PCP has sent a referral and records THREE TIMES. When I call the office, they NEVER answer and rarely call back. They obviously don't need new patients but don't even bother...

My husband was in so much pain he was unable to sleep or to even lie down. Dr. Alexander removed a cyst on his spine and he was INSTANTLY free of pain and slept in his own bed the night of his surgery. Dr. Alexander was thorough, compassionate, and informative. Would highly recommend him.

My husbands issues have been very complicated .Never had a doctor spend as much time as he has during visits and behind the scene examine explaining evaluating as he has.Not afraid to change diagnosis refer you someone more specialized in the areas that need it.Very pleasant person to talk...

Dr. Ray is highly knowledgeable and kind. He understands mental health and is a sensitive care giver.

fantastic doctor

The best! Very well educated and knowledgeable. He saved my life!

Dr. Silvia is the best doctor I ever had. If she couldn't help me with something, she knew who could. So easy to talk with. I miss her.

Unprofessional

During my initial consult, Dr. Roberts recommended surgery, and ASSURED me that he and his staff would be right there with me throughout the entire recovery process. This could not have been farther from the truth. I had surgery last Friday. I was given a prescription for pain meds that barely got...

very professional . she went out of her way to explain things to me.

I found Dr. Jackson to be lacking in listening skills and did nothing that I could not have had done at the Walk In clinic after the Walk In Clinic sent me to the ER. Total waste of my time and money. I would not go to him for anything.

Dr. Sawyer was very professional. He took time to answer all my questions including communication in “my chart”

We recently switched our kids from a pediatric dentist near where we live in Portland to see Dr. Mike. Let me tell you, it was absolutely worth a little extra travel time! Our youngest daughter was seen for a mini emergency over the weekend and the admin team was so helpful with communication and...

Dr Colacchio performed a total left knee replacement on me in January of 2020. Throughout the process, from initial consultation to my final visit I was extremely satisfied with everything. My knee feels so much better and I plan to have him performing a right knee replacement when it is time.

He performed eye lid and brow surgery on me. I'm a 61 year old male. My eyelids had started to droop so much that I had a difficult time seeing, especially by the end of the day. I found Dr. Kahn to be personable and professional, and I am thrilled with the results. Really, really good. Some people...

Recently did my breast surgery and love the results. Could not be any happier!!

I recently had hip joint reconstruction surgery done by Dr. Colacchio. I cannot say enough good things about him and his team. The surgery was a total success and exceeded my expectations in every way. Dr. Colacchio is a rare combination of a young surgeon who is physically at the top of his...

Dr. Muscat is very knowledgeable. He is empathetic and seems to like his job very much. He is careful with his words and tone and makes the appointments both human and humane. He offers the kind of appointment people wanted and most often received about 20 years ago. I recommend him to all the ...

Dr. Verne Weisberg is such a talented guy. I look younger than I did 10 years ago, but still like me. So amazed with his talent!

maybe she knows how to perform the surgery ( i lived) but 10 days after the surgery that I recuperated at the hospital I felt left on my own, did not know if I will live and was scared for my life. She was hardly ever around to make my fears go away. To reassure me to tell me what was happening to...

Dr Spratt is a knowledgeable and patient doctor. He was referred to me by an outstanding Gynecologist who said that Dr Spratt knows more about hormones than any other person she has ever met. I went to him for treatment of osteoporosis, and a hormone imbalance. I am a question asker with a...

Dr. White is exceptional. He goes above and beyond to make you feel like a friend or family member, rather than just another patient of his. He is passionate, highly knowledgeable and thanks to him I'm working out again and stronger than ever post foot surgery last October (2019). Dr. White...

My experience with Dr. Burke was good

Dr Kirkham brings his professional knowledge along with empathy and concern for the highest & best possible outcome for his patient’s health & wellbeing. After being diagnosed with breast cancer, Dr Kirkham walked WITH me through my journey of removing the cancer, placing breast expanders to prepare...

I have been a patient of Dr. Palminteri for the past few years. I must say that her professionalism, compassion, and humanitarianism is beyond reproach. Dr. Palminteri treats her patients as human beings, not dollars. She intently listens to your health concerns and talks to her patients in...

I was sent to Dr Kuhn my another Orthropod. I saw Dr Kuhn for severe knee pain bond on bone. Said I needed a total knee replacement. That will be 4 years this June 2020. Amazing at the knowledge he had. Great outcome. When other knee started acting up and got to point of severe pain all the time I...

I know for a fact that I have been so successful in my opioid recovery. Due to Dr. Bilotti's personalized treatment and his attention to my needs as his patient. Based upon my prior treatments at two other facilities. In Portland Maine for my past alcoholism addiction. I will recommend his...

the good doctor did a reverse complete shoulder replacement. My rehab was slow, but it turned out very well. My rotator cuff was completely severed. Couldn't use my right arm. Now I can. I have limitations, but no pain. It is almost normal. He did a great job. The whole team is great.

He has done a wonderful job of managing my severe asthma very well. He is an excellent diagnostician, very knowledgeable, and works very hard to provide patients with the best care. He also referred me to a very good pulmonologist. I couldn’t be happier with his care.

Lied to me about the cost of a surgery. At the meeting to schedule the surgery I was under the impression the person I was discussing this procedure with was my surgeon however the day of the surgery I found out it was his assistant. He neglected to tell me potential complications from the surgery...

My experience with Dr. Fels has been a Godsend. I’ve spend years suffering and transferring from physician to physician until I was referred by a family member. I would recommend anyone who is looking for a compassionate professional who knows exactly how to treat, listen, and care.

I met Dr. Sawyer for a second opinion for my knee pain. He was genuinely concerned and spent a good deal of time examining me and reviewing my X-ray and MRI with me. He discussed 2 options with me in detail. He was very patient and understanding. I was so impressed with his bedside manner and...

He’s efficient and friendly. He can come across as very serious, but he’s friendly. He very good at his job.

He's a great Doctor. Saved my life.

Dr. Doehne is a very compassionate person. She is also very knowledgeable nad caring. If she is not sure about an issue she is willing to consult with others on your behalf. She is so aware of your health needs and keeps track of all referrals. She is so good as a PCP. Her smile, warm manner...

I was referred to Dr White for Bunyan surgery for my mother and I was hearing that he was a pioneer in dealing in this arena. My referrals were all correct in their advisement. It was a GREAT experience in every way...from consultation through post opp! Thank you Dr White! It has totally changed my...

I have had severe hammer toes on both feet since childhood. My right foot became unbearable and I sought Dr. White's help. He recommended surgery to straighten the toes. On February 6, 2020, Dr. White straightened three of the toes on my right foot in a day surgery procedure. It has been six...

Dr. Holmes is a skilled practitioner w/a masterful touch...my Dad was provided the very best care by Dr. Holmes and his team.

I have been a patient of Dr. Kathryn Galbraith for several years and have been extremely pleased with her. I could not recommend anyone more highly.

I'm 70 year old male and have had 5 family doctors. Dr. Wendy Cathcart is the best doctor i'v ever had. I feel lucky to have her as my doctor. I've never had a doctor care about me like she does. She goes the extra mile and then some.

Dr. Colacchio performed a 2-stage total knee revision on my right knee after an unsuccessful and infected primary replacement that had been done at another hospital. This lengthy(several months) and complex journey could not have been more successful. Just returned from my 3rd followup with Dr....

I had a very positive experience with Dr. White. I was referred to Portland Foot and Ankle by my primary care doctor to discuss treatment for a painful bunion. He explained my options thoroughly and seemed very knowledgeable. I had advanced bunion surgery (Lapiplasty) late last year and was back...

Exceeded my expectations.

It took me about seven years of wanting (and debating) an abdominoplasty (full tummy tuck) before I decided to do it - and the only reason that finally convinced me was finding the right surgeon. Dr. Richard H. Kutz is the best out there. He is exceptionally professional, incredibly smart at what he...

Wish it could be ZERO stars. Don’t waste your time. The most incompetent medical office ever. And I’ve been to many. They all suck but this on will raise your blood pressure

I had surgery on my bunions several years ago. My right big toe has been drifting outward and the the second toe is clearly a hammertoe and was never diagnosed. I have seen Dr. white and he has never offered to fix this. I am very disappointed

Dr. Galbraith is really wonderful if you want to work on your health and wellness with a practitioner who listens carefully and will help you develop a plan for it.

It was very nice and professional

Dr. Scholl and staff have a way with kids. This office is truly a gem and we happily drive down from Gardiner after a less than pleasant experience at a pediatric dentist in Augusta. Make the call to their office, you will not regret it. The tokens the children earn for flossing are a nice bonus for...

Misdiagnosed me and put me on strong immunosupressants, despite all my labs being normal. Almost killed me.

Every appointment seemed like an eternity, waited 1hr and 15 minutes one time and that was a good day. The waiting area could use new carpets and is not sanity. Seems to take advantage of people or put himself above try them.

Dr. Colacchio performed a total knee replacement for me on a leg that had prior breaks in the tibia and ankle. I understand it was more challenging than other more routine situations. A year later, I could not be more pleased. I highly recommend Dr. Colacchio.

I first saw Dr. Scott last year for thumb joint pain. I was told by several people that he's the best surgeon in New England to address the issue I am having. Everyone described him as kind with an amazing bedside manner. The office visit was a pleasant experience, staff was friendly, and...

Avoid this doctor at all costyou've e been warned

I underwent total knee replacement in Dec. 2019. I am very pleased with the outcome of my surgery. Dr. Colacchio and Patrick Furlong, PA were wonderful. All of my questions were answered and when I needed assistance after surgery, Nikki RN was there for me. I couldn't have asked for a better...

I had a partial knee replacement on November 5, 2019. Dr. Colacchio was great! I have no complaints. He explained everything very well so I knew what to expect. I was walking without assistance within one week and I was doing all my normal activities by the one month mark. His PA Patrick Furlong...

Dr. Sonti has been my PCP for the last 8 years and the level of service and care has gotten really bad. She was very friendly at first and took an interest in getting to know me as a patient. It takes forever to be seen, I wait over an hour now. Each time I call to try and talk with her, I never get...

Dr. Neilson is a wonderful practitioner. He made our family feel at ease during anxious medical times, and our little patient absolutely adores him. He has a grasp of his work and asks others for help if he needs. We love dr. Neilson.

High marks for Dr Zacks. He confirmed a prior diagnosis and outlined treatment and management options including what to expect from choosing cataract surgery. My outcome was better than I anticipated and I am very pleased with the level of care received.

I waited for two months to see her. Then she had her PA see me. She never came in to see me or introduce herself. I hope they will allow me to see another doctor in the office

Very professional.

Fabulous care & treatment of complications & secondary Glaucoma after OS cataract implant replacement.

She listened and encouraged more details to better understand my condition. Our appt lasted almost an hour. Recorded the scope to replay and explain to me what she was looking at. It was a two month wait to get in as a new patient and totally worth the wait.

Very successful bilateral knee replacement. Dr. Colacchio listened to my desire to have both knees done at once, assessed whether I was a good candidate for the procedure and answered questions thoughtfully and honestly. He communicated with us throughout the process. His team is also excellent -...

Actually, I have already recommended Dr. Flanagan III to many people in need or thinking about foot surgery. I told them about the excellent care I received from Dr. Flanagan III. Before leaving my appointments, Dr. Flanagan made sure that I fully understood everything involved in my post & pre op...

I called office due to a dry cough and reply was that they do not see me without a referral. I do not know anyone in the area and the receptionist did not offer any help whatsoever. I am a professional consultant and will make note of this.

Perhaps too soon to be writing a review because I'm only 6 days out of surgery but my experience with OA and Dr. Asherman was top notch. This is my 2nd ankle surgery and this experience was so much better than the previous at a different facility. The entire process from soup to nuts thus far has...

I had surgery on my shattered humerus in 2012. Now Feburary of 2020 and I'm still 100% satisfied with the procedure done to save my obliterated arm. Much appreciated Dr. White. I had an external fixation device installed for 2 months and my arm healed up exceptionally well. I managed to slip and...

I have nothing but good to say about Dr. Barr, I was referred to him by a friend several years ago I Have had a knee replacement, two hip replacements, and muscle repair,. I have had no problems and feel great no pain at all. Surgeries went well and was back Doing every day task in no time.He has...

In Jan 2016 I received a Cervical injection for a C-5/C-6 disc herniation. I was experiencing right shoulder pain and was told it was coming from my neck. When Dana Crovo did the injection I got a warm feeling in my right hand then immediately my left shoulder and arm tightened up and went numb. I...

I broke my fibula in a spiral fracture at the ankle. Dr. Flanigan proposed treatment that I could opt for that didn't involve surgery. I could not bear any weight on it until it was healed, but it was a good way to treat this as I have absolutely no problems with it at all now. It's like it never...

Steve Barr's assessment and treatment of my daughter's injury was insufficient and thus caused more damage and subsequent surgeries (from a qualified surgeon). He did not order an MRI, even though the signs and symptoms indicated that there was a high potential for soft tissue damage (there was a...

I would highly recommend Dr. Colacchio and his staff. I found them compassionate and ready to answer any questions I had before and after my knee replacement surgery.
