In Joe's line of work, he knows how important it is for Mainers to have access to affordable healthcare. In that vein, here's a nonprofit every Portlander should know about: Greater Portland Health is a remarkable medical practice committed to offering everyone in our communities high-quality, affordable and respectful care. Established in 2009 as the Portland Community Health Center, this organization now serves close to 12,000 people from its eight offices in Portland and one in South Portland.

The folks at GPH provide a greater range of care than many practices, including primary medical, behavioral health and oral health. They also partner with the region’s finest specialists to care for your whole self, for your whole life.

GPH welcomes everyone, no matter what type of insurance you may have—private, Medicare, MaineCare, or none. For those without insurance, they offer a sliding-scale fee based on income.
