Show Details
The idea for Central Maine General Hospital originated from Dr. Edward Henry Hill, (1844-1904) a local medical professional who acknowledged the need for a general hospital in central Maine. In 1891, the hospital opened in converted private homes, near the eventual location of the Central Maine Medical Center.
