Richmond Area Health Center 1.35

Established in 1977, Richmond Area Health Center provides family health care to permanent residents and visitors alike. In 2011, the health center served 2,919 patients. Our supportive community board has facilitated many renovations in response to the consistent growth of the practice.

The health center is an outpatient practice providing medical care to people of all ages. We maintain referral relationships with MaineGeneral Medical Center (Augusta) as well as with specialists at Parkview Hospital (Brunswick), Mid-Coast Hospital (Brunswick), Central Maine Medical Center (Lewiston), and St. Mary’s Hospital (Lewiston). In addition, we connect patients to local health education resources and programs that help with the cost of health care, medications and laboratory services.

Positioned on the west bank of the Kennebec River, Richmond Area Health Center is located halfway between Augusta and Bath, just twenty minutes from coastal Maine. Downtown Richmond offers opportunities for visitors and locals to enjoy antiquing, shopping and dining. For those interested in history, famous figures such as Aaron Burr and Benedict Arnold visited historic Swan Island, not far from Richmond’s banks. Habitat to a variety of wildlife, Swan Island provides hiking and camping to wilderness enthusiasts.
