New Mid Coast Medical Practice Opens in Topsham

Topsham, ME – The providers of Mid Coast Medical Group – Topsham began seeing patients at their new state-of-the-art medical facility on Monday, March 3. Offering adult internal medicine and primary care, Mid Coast Medical Group – Topsham is conveniently located just off Route 196, adjacent to The Highlands, at One Wellness Way. Current and new patients are welcome.

The new 11,000 square-foot medical building represents a strong collaboration among several local organizations, as well as a positive statement about the future of healthcare in the region. Mid Coast Health Services worked with The Highlands to negotiate space for the new facility, developed and owned by Sea Coast Management Company. Project architects included Maine-based Gawron Turgeon and SMRT, while Landry/French oversaw construction.

The new facility was built to accommodate an advanced primary care delivery model known as the Patient-Centered Medical Home. The innovative concept encourages patients to actively participate in their own care, a measure proven to improve quality of care, health outcomes, and lower costs. All Mid Coast Medical Group Primary Care offices have transitioned to this model, supporting Mid Coast’s mission to transform healthcare and improve the overall health of the community.

“We are thrilled to partner with Mid Coast to establish this new modern medical facility at The Highlands,” said John Wasileski, Founder/Developer of The Highlands and neighboring Highland Green. “The professional, high quality care that they provide and their focus on improving community health and wellness is perfectly in line with our vision for the health of our residents.”

Mid Coast Medical Group – Topsham offers adult primary care, preventative care, chronic disease management, specialty referrals, and integrated behavioral health counseling. The provider team includes Amy Etzweiler, MD, Kristin Jhamb, MD, Susan Lohnes, ANP, Christopher Meserve, MD, John Parker, MD, and Jennifer Riehl, MD, who will continue to serve their current patients, while also accommodating requests for new patients. All of the doctors are board certified in Internal Medicine and are members of the active medical staff of Mid Coast Hospital.

“Our new facility speaks to Mid Coast’s dedication to transform healthcare within our region,” said Amy Etzweiler, MD, a physician with the group. “Starting from the ground up, this new building was created to emphasize care coordination and communication among providers. We are excited about having a space that promotes patient participation and encourages better health outcomes for all.”
