Helen Hunt Health Center is housed in a beautifully renovated, spacious 3-story 1903 brick schoolhouse rich with local history.  A well-loved landmark that has been lovingly restored, the Helen Hunt building serves as a focal point for community health services just as it did for education over 100 years ago when it was a school serving local 4th and 5th grade students!

Old Town is a unique island community made up of several islands in the Penobscot and Stillwater Rivers conveniently accessed by several bridges.   Just 10 minutes from downtown Bangor, AND 10 minutes from UMaine’s flagship campus in neighboring Orono, Old Town is a quaint community surrounded by acres of forest and pristine waters with more than 50 miles of rivers and streams accessible year-around.

The Adult Wellness Center is conveniently located on Union Street, in Bangor, with a newly renovated and very well-appointed clinic on PCHC's flagship campus, close by PCHC Dental Center and Penobscot Pediatrics.

Bangor is Maine’s third largest city, with its own international airport, making both domestic and international travel easy. It’s a short drive to Boston (3 hrs.) and to Portland’s quaint Old Port (2 hrs.)  Limitless 4-season outdoor recreational opportunities, a wide variety of arts, cultural and entertainment venues, coupled with great family-centered neighborhoods and excellent public and private educational opportunities make this area highly desirable.
