Project completed

FARMINGTON – Pine Tree Women’s Care recently completed a project to consolidate one main entrance and exit for its patients.

According to the office manager, Mavis Dubord, the practice has created a central entrance and designated exit that will improve the comfort, efficiency and privacy of the offices. Previously patients had used two separate entrances and exits, depending upon the provider they were seeing.

Pine Tree Women’s care is located at 200 Livermore Falls Road and new signage clearly directs patients to the proper entrance.
