RUMFORD — Jeffrey Lynds, M.D., a resident in the Central Maine Medical Center Rural Residency Program at Swift River Family Medicine and Rumford Hospital for two years, has completed his residency and will continue his service to the River Valley community. He is currently accepting new patients.

Lynds noted that the rural track residency program at Swift River and Rumford Hospital afforded him the opportunity to work very closely with the attending physicians and to know all the members of the medical staff on a first-name basis. He also credits the program for giving him the chance to work with specialist physicians in the specialty clinics and in the hospital’s Emergency Department.

Lynds earned his medical degree from Saint George’s University in Grenada.
