About Spectrum Orthopaedics

Maine’s Preeminent Musculoskeletal Group

Spectrum Healthcare Partners launched it orthopedic division through the merger of several well-respected orthopedic practices, including OA Centers for Orthopaedics and Maine Orthopaedics Center. In 2020, Spectrum Healthcare Partners introduced Spectrum Orthopaedics – a new, unified brand that allowed our physicians to consolidate their orthopedic groups and continue providing expert care collaboratively.

This unification of our orthopedic division allows our providers to partner more closely and share both knowledge, experience and resources. This enhanced collaboration allows us to improve the quality and value of our patient care. It also serves as the foundation for our future growth. Finally, coming closer together also improves the patient experience – we are now able to provide centralized scheduling, streamlined access to subspecialty care, and other important benefits.

Spectrum Orthopaedics brings expertise to a broad geography and provides access to orthopedic care across southern and western Maine. Our brand represents quality patient care, expertise, and access, so individuals can feel confident about the care they receive across the Spectrum Orthopaedics system. Because of their expertise in trauma care, Spectrum Orthopaedics surgeons serve on the trauma staff at Maine Medical Center (MMC), the state’s only Level I Trauma Center, and Stephens Memorial Hospital, a Level II Trauma Center, treating some of the most critical and complex injuries in the state. In addition, our orthopedic physicians play a vital role in providing 24/7 emergency surgery coverage to other hospitals in southern and central Maine, including Northern Light Mercy Hospital.

Today, Spectrum Orthopaedics boasts the largest and most experienced orthopedics team in Maine with offices in Portland, Brunswick, and Windham. In addition to our board-certified, subspecialty-trained orthopedic physicians and surgeons, our team includes physical and occupational therapists, physician assistants, nurses, and certified athletic trainers who all play an invaluable role in continuity of care for our patients.

When a condition affecting your bones and joints interferes with your ability to live life without pain or compromise, you can count on Spectrum Orthopaedics.
