During COVID-19
We are here to serve you! Whether you have an ear infection, allergies or other ailment, including possible COVID-19, we are here to help!
Please don't hesitate to visit us. We do recommend you call when you arrive. Someone will meet you at the entrance to screen you for COVID-19 symptoms. See our phone numbers by location in the box on the right of this screen.
COVID-19 Testing
MaineGeneral Express Care is only doing testing ordered by a medical staff member.
If you have COVID-19 symptoms, call your primary care provider.
If you do not have COVID-19 symptoms but want a COVID-19 test, go to our COVID-19 testing page for information on how to access this test.

MaineGeneral Express Care is staffed by trusted nurse practitioners and physician assistants who work closely with primary care providers (PCP).
If you're a patient of a MaineGeneral practice, we can access your electronic medical record and help avoid costly and unnecessary duplication of tests, enhance medication safety and improve communication with your PCP.
We'll coordinate your care with your PCP or help you set up a medical home with a provider if you don't have one.
We'll also refer you to other services you may need like specialists, lab work and X-ray.
How it Works
If you feel sick or are hurt, call your PCP for an appointment. If he or she can't see you, we will be happy to see you at MaineGeneral Express Care.
Walk-in care is provided so appointments are not needed.
What You Can Expect
- Highly trained providers who work with your PCP to provide you with the high-quality care you've come to expect from MaineGeneral Health
- A friendly and warm atmosphere
- Shorter wait times and lower co-payments than an Emergency Department visit
Payment Information
We bill all insurances but require that co-pays and co-insurance be paid at the time of service. You may pay by credit or debit card, personal check or cash.
