LEWISTON — Dr. Marc Christensen has been reprimanded by the state’s medical license board after he was found to be driving under the influence while on call to treat patients.

A former employee of Northern New England Neurosurgical Associates, and also of St. Mary’s Regional Medical Center in Lewiston, Christensen, 51, of Falmouth was arrested after an accident on Feb. 8, 2015, in Falmouth. At the time, his blood-alcohol level measured 0.22 percent, which is more than twice the state’s legal limit of 0.08 percent.

He was charged with operating under the influence and convicted in June.

On Wednesday, the Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine issued a statement that Christensen has been reprimanded by the board, noting that his OUI accident happened when he was “on call for the treatment of patients.”

Christensen was ordered to pay a $1,000 fine and will be on probation with the licensing board for seven years.

According to the accident report, just after 2 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 8, 2015, Christensen was driving his Toyota SUV on Woodville Road in Falmouth during a snowstorm when he ran a stop sign at the intersection with Falmouth Road. Christensen was driving erratically at the time of the crash, according to the report.

Christensen’s vehicle struck a pickup truck being driven by Kai Adams, 44, of Falmouth.

Christensen’s SUV struck the passenger side of the truck where Morgan Adams, who is now 9 years old, was seated.

No one was injured.

According to the Department of Motor Vehicles, in addition to the OUI conviction last year, Christensen has speeding convictions in 2005, 2009, 2011 and 2014.

In 2011, his license was suspended in connection with a charge of operating under the influence in July 2010.

His driving license was originally suspended through April 2018, but was restored last month after his vehicle was fitted with an ignition interlock device to test for intoxicants before the car can start.

According to the Board of Licensure, after Christensen was terminated from his job with St. Mary’s, he entered into an interim consent agreement to immediately suspend his medical license.

According to his 2003 employment announcement with Northern New England Neurosurgical Associates, Christensen completed his medical school training at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston, and received his doctorate in neuroscience at the University of Texas, Galveston, where he studied and published in the field of spinal cord injury and regeneration.

He spent a year in Boston at Massachusetts General Hospital, specializing in epilepsy and movement disorders, and completed his neurosurgical residency at the State University of New York in Syracuse.

Christensen’s annual salary at St. Mary’s in 2011 was $1.4 million, making him the highest-paid physician practicing at a Maine hospital for that year.
