Kingfield – This November, staff of the Mt. Abram Regional Health Center were happy to welcome Garrett Smith, PA, to their professional healthcare team.

Smith earned his Bachelor of Science, Physician Assistant Rural Medicine degree from Mountain State University in Beckley, West Virginia. Smith’s wealth of medical experience includes time spent in multiple settings, including the U.S. Army Medical Corps, urgent care, and family medicine settings. We are certain that his wide range of experience and knowledge will be a wonderful addition to the Mt. Abram Team.

Smith shares, “I am very excited to be joining the team at Mt. Abram Regional Health Center, and look forward to working closely with the community. I am an outdoor enthusiast and cannot wait to explore the area.”

Smith joins the existing Mt. Abram clinical team — Physician Assistant, Gina Bruno; Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, Amy Peters; and Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Angela Kristoff.

Founded in 1986, Mt. Abram Regional Health Center is part of HealthReach Community Health Centers — a private nonprofit Federally Qualified Health Center consisting of twelve community health centers located across Central and Western Maine. Since 1975, HealthReach clinicians have delivered high-quality healthcare — inclusive of primary care, behavioral health, substance use disorder, dental, and podiatric services — to residents from 9 of Maine’s 16 counties. To ensure access for everyone, HealthReach accepts Medicare, MaineCare, and major insurance providers. An Affordable Care Program is available to both uninsured and underinsured people. Assistance is available for applications to programs that help with your healthcare and medication costs — including enrollment support for Maine’s Health Insurance Marketplace.

The above is issued in furtherance of HealthReach Community Health Centers’ federally funded health center project. This year, HealthReach received $4,815,606 in federal assistance, which is estimated as constituting 17.8% of project costs. Of total project costs for this year, HealthReach estimates 82.2% will be financed with non-governmental sources.
