MaineGeneral's SMART Program
Sports Medicine Access Response Team
SMART is the only program of its kind in Maine, helping athletes and active people of all ages, skill levels and interests get the care they need. SMART was created to help answer questions about your sports-related injury, give you direct access to an appointment with one of our excellent sports medicine physicians or provide you with information about injuries that active people experience.
