There’s still quite a bit of mud around the building (because it's March in Maine!) but MaineHealth Primary Care Waldoboro is now open at 126 Depot Street in Waldoboro. Our beautiful new building is now fully functional, and we’re excited to welcome our patients into our new home!

If you are visiting MaineHealth Lincoln Hospital’s Miles Campus tomorrow (March 18), please be aware there will be traffic flow changes in front of the Watson Center and the patient parking area (highlighted in red) beginning around 11 a.m.

Staff will be there to guide patients when they arrive. We urge patients to plan a few extra minutes for travel to ensure an on-time arrival for an appointment.

The Watson Center will close at 5 p.m. to complete a water line repair, and we anticipate traffic will return to its normal pattern when we open Thursday morning.
Thank you for your patience!

Yesterday, MaineHealth Lincoln Hospital hosted a ribbon cutting and tours of the new MaineHealth Primary Care - Waldoboro office. We welcomed a crowd of care team members, neighbors, patients, board members, donors and many others who were pivotal in the efforts to plan and build the new state-of-the-art facility.

It was a fabulous event, with bright sun and bright smiles! We'd like to thank everyone for all the work that has gone into the new facility. It was many years in the making and was such an incredibly proud moment for everyone who helped along the way.

Providers will begin seeing patients at the 126 Depot Street office on Monday, March 16.
