Thanks!
July 18, 2026
I just took The last of my antibiotics and my leg is looking 100% better even though at one point it was scary and looked like necrosis. Thank you for making me feel better.
July 15, 2026
All of my interactions with the receptionist/intake employee, nurse, and doctor were pleasant and I was well take care of.
July 06, 2026
NP Brown couldn't have been nicer and compassionate. Thank you ?
July 01, 2026
It would have been nice to have figured more out. Just left with more questions and no one to talk to since I dont have a current primary care doctor. But they did help me get on the waiting list..
June 28, 2026
I felt that everything that I experienced was done really well. I even feel that the time that was given, like I was, I heard from my test results very quickly and people were calling me back very quickly and I was very impressed. I think everything went really, really well. Thank you so much. Bye.

At emergency room at Thayer while waiting to be seen by Emergency Dr they had an emergency come in. Very understandable to be pushed back but there was no communication!!! FOR HOURS!!
June 23, 2026
I find it disgusting and shallow that when people come in and have a genuine concern that they can get shoowed away with a 'sounds good' diagnosis and a prescription.
June 16, 2026
Excellent Care
June 12, 2026
Allison Brown is amazing, very caring, great listener, compassionate and overall just a wonderful person.
June 10, 2026
Very professional staff and very friendly!
June 08, 2026
I appreciated how quickly I was seen, my issues assessed and followed up.
May 30, 2026
Many people complain about MGMC, but over the last 35 years I have consistently received excellent care which continues today.
May 30, 2026
Did a great job all around.

Alison is it better than average listener. She picked up on things that I had not noticed. She motivated me to follow the interventions that are standard for my potential Lyme disease diagnosis. I'm less worried and more confident now. Appreciate her specific council on how to avoid doxycycline side effects. Jill, the RN, who drew the blood sample, was especially thoughtful.
May 26, 2026
Allison was very kind and caring and considerate. She listened to my needs and the nurse was gentle when cleaning out my wounds.
May 22, 2026
I just want to thank all of the workers at Express Care in Augusta. You guys do exceptional work, very pleasant and very helpful. And when I had Allison Brown for my knee on Sunday, I was thinking, how do I know her from? Well, a year ago I jammed my finger in a window with a stick and she sewed up my little finger. And she did such a great job. So thank you again, Allison, for your help with my finger a year ago and for helping me with my knee, which is much better. And again, thank you to the whole staff. You guys just are wonderful.

Allison the provider who saw me was awesome. She listened and was kind. Thank you. This urgent care has been a much better experience than others I have been to.
May 18, 2026
This was some of the best healthcare I've ever received. I didn't have to wait to be checked in for more than a minute or two, and every member of staff was incredibly kind, thoughtful, professional, and did everything they could to help me. Without you, I would be out of my vital medication due to Northern Light shutting down. Thank you so much for all you do, I will only go to you from now on!
May 18, 2026
Everyone was very kind and caring.
April 28, 2026
I just wanted to say that the doctor that we saw was absolutely amazing and I would come back just to see her. She was absolutely amazing and I would recommend her to anybody.
April 28, 2026
Thank you to the entire staff I encountered.
April 25, 2026
Dr.Brown was very open about my regular use of traditional plant remedies and herbs, and encouraged me to continue along with prescription medicines as needed. The more doctors who can accept and recommend the compatibility of these two modalities, the better off we will be.
April 22, 2026
Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable . Very pleasant atmosphere . Good place to go and feel better.
April 17, 2026

April 11, 2026

April 11, 2026
Brenda at the front desk, the nurse practitioner and the doctor was Allison--all were TERRIFIC!!
April 11, 2026
She was absolutely tremendous. She convinced me to take a blood test that I didn't think I needed, and it turned out that I really did can't say enough good about her.
April 07, 2026
I would like to say Allison was amazing and she listened to everything I said and really helped me a lot and was very kind. She also hooked me up with an orthopedic appointment and I felt very comfortable and I was very happy.
April 04, 2026
They were all very nice and professional. The NP also said she would send a referral in for a PCP. I am hoping I hear soon
March 16, 2026

I couldn't ask for better service than I've gotten at Express Care during my illness. Thank you.
March 16, 2026
Allison & Lilly were fantastic!
March 12, 2026
The staff were amazing! They were all so helpful and kind
February 26, 2026
The staff was all very friendly, kind, helpful, very quickly. I was in and out of there in no time at all. Very professional. The only downfall I had was I had no after-visit summary to give me to use for a follow-up as to what had just transpired within the office. That was the only thing I was missing and I had no paperwork showing me the after-visit summary as to what transpired that day.
February 14, 2026
Very efficent, liked the three sperate waiting rms. Many were coughing. mentioned fever etc. I did have any of those syptoms so was able to sit in a space without those that were really sick.
February 10, 2026
Excellent heath facility. When I need medical treatment I always go to your express care
February 03, 2026

January 25, 2026
Allison explained everything thoroughly and answered my questions. I would see her again.
January 25, 2026
The pe I saw this tim was so much better than last time she was awesome
January 24, 2026
Allison helped me with a sudden sensorineural hearing loss that was urgent and acute. I very much appreciated her honesty about the situation and especially that she consulted a colleague for my not-so-common problem and to give me the right prescription the same day. She also provided clear guidance for follow up with ENT and audiology.
January 22, 2026
I appreciate the care I got and the organization at the front desk.

Thankful for express care
January 01, 2026
Phenomenal nurses.
December 22, 2025
I was very anxious and the registration woman was very calming. Both the nurse and the doctor were extremely kind and helpful. I felt very lucky that Express Care was open that time of day. The doctor checked that the pharmacy I use would be open because it was getting late. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to say Thank You.
December 22, 2025
Listening bead excellent
December 22, 2025
I've always received great care at all MGMC practices!
December 17, 2025
This is not our first time running into this provider and every time that we have had the chance to have her as our practitioner, she's been amazing and very just helpful and caring towards my son.
December 09, 2025
My husband stay at hospital your team very good take care
December 05, 2025
It is efficient and the hours are versatile so health care can be rendered rather than ignored and hope it goes away because life is busy. Hope to see one in the Newport area soon.
November 28, 2025
every person from check-in, to triage nurse, nurse practitioner, and xray tech were friendly, caring and professional
November 25, 2025
I appreciate the kind, compassionate, and timely care I received.
November 22, 2025
The provider was very knowledgeable and friendly with a three-year-old and the medical assistant was amazing. And we appreciate them all.
November 22, 2025
My care team was really responsive to my needs and excellent, everything, excellent.
November 14, 2025
Kind and caring. I felt heard.
November 13, 2025
I'm so glad I found compassionate care.
November 08, 2025
Everyone was very, very pleasant, helpful, and I would be very anxious to go to your facility again. Thank you.
November 08, 2025
Well, nobody called me back. They took a flu and took a COVID test and never called me back to let me know either way. But other than that, the service was great. She said, but she gave me the idea that the impression that I didn't have anything, though, because she said usually by the time that they look at the readings, the readings at the time that I was there would have predicted it. But I would have rather have the call to loose to let me know yes or no. But other than that, yeah, it was great going there. Bye.
November 08, 2025
All positive!
November 04, 2025
I felt comfortable and listened to.
November 03, 2025
I just wish they would have done x-rays on my back so we could know for sure what was wrong with it. But I appreciate the care that I did get. Thank you.
October 28, 2025
The doctor we had was great! My son has asthma and she took time to hear every thing I had to say. She was amazing, explained every thing to us and really took the time to treat him properly. She was also so nice and kind we really enjoyed having her.
October 21, 2025
Very good
October 08, 2025
The conditions continue and the course of treatment will be complete tomorrow. I don't know what to do next. There has only been minimal improvement and I can't get in to see my pcp who was on vacation. Now his office informed me that he's too backed up. Any suggestions?
October 05, 2025
professional service.
September 23, 2025
IT WAS GREAT. ALLISON REFERRED ME FOR AN ULTRA SOUND WHICH OCCURRED SAME AFTERNOON OF SEEING HER WHICH I AM MOST GREATFUL FOR.
September 23, 2025
My doctor performed all the same tests that she did. She literally looked at what my doctor did and repeated it. She told me that she couldn't order me an ultrasound. I had to go through my primary care physician. When I messaged my primary care physician on the portal then she decided to offer me the option of her ordering an ultrasound two days later. But she told me in the visit that that was not an option I left with no results I left feeling like I threw my money in the trash.
September 03, 2025
Hi, I just want to tell you that as soon as I walked in, I was greeted nicely. And the person that took care of me, that she was behind the desk, she was awesome. She was so good. I just want to let you know. I don't remember her name, but she took care of me at the desk registering me to get me moving to get down to the doctor. So that's all I needed to tell. Thank you.
September 03, 2025
They did a really good job at identifying what was going on and in my case the test results came back pretty quickly and I got a pretty concise and clear explanation of what to do after everything was done. Thank you very much.
August 20, 2025
The team at Maine General Express Care gave me good and correct advice after my primary care person gave me poor and ill advised direction. They made or had time to see me for what I would consider a serious health concern when it was all my primary care professional could do was respond by email after an email and 2 calls.
August 19, 2025
I really appreciated Allison's professionalism, her thoroughness, and her follow-up. She gave me two phone calls either that day or the next day. Sorry, my brain's a little fuzzy. And also had office staff call me the following day. I was very, very impressed with the follow-up and with the care I received.
August 16, 2025
Very pleased
August 16, 2025
We need more doctors recruit from other countries.
August 16, 2025
The whole staff was awesome ?
August 11, 2025
Hi, you guys did a really fantastic job of listening to my issue, and you guys were very friendly, very helpful, very caring and considerate, and I really appreciate that. And you guys are amazing. Thank you for what you do. Have a good day. Bye.
August 08, 2025
Very fortunate to have been seen at this facility when I had a medical issue while away from home. Everyone was very professional and compassionate. I received great care. Thank you to everyone involved.
August 08, 2025
Came in with heavy chest, shortness of breath, dizziness, weakness, headache, fevers, and swollen glands. Care team tested me for strep with no signs of sore throat or cold. Proceeded to prescribe me cough medicine when no cough was present or other cold symptoms, then seemed surprised when I said I didn't have a cough. Mentioned Lyme and sent me on my way without answers or being any help. After over a week of being miserably sick I remember why I never go to express care. The lightheadedness, shortness of breath, heavy chest, and weakness was NEVER touched on and was my biggest concern.
August 08, 2025
Very good treatment.
