Sr Director of Operations, Mike will be discussing the new Medical office building located on PenBay campus. Funded by the community and the foundation. 2 story building including most offices, internal and family medicine, ENT, pediatrics and speech. Some other offices will expand into the old building. Looking to open around October 30 when we begin moving practices into the building. December 7th is the projected date for all patients. We are moving as many of our current practices to our campus. Covid social distancing will be set in place at this location as is present in other locations. Picker Center is owned by PenBay, all others have been leased. Urgent care center is being considered but not set up at this time. Gastroenterology center has been moved to the physician building, looking to expand surgical space for providers.
