SCARBOROUGH — A strategic plan has been announced for the building of a state-of-the-art medical office building (MOB) and ambulatory surgery center (ASC) in the Town Center at The Downs in Scarborough. InterMed, southern Maine’s largest physician-owned primary care and multispecialty services medical group, has announced its partnership with Remedy Medical Properties and Kayne Anderson Real Estate, together the nation’s largest private owners of healthcare properties, according to a news release.

"This collaboration promises to transform healthcare delivery in the region, bringing advanced medical care and surgical facilities under one roof," said InterMed, in the news release.

The new 62,000-square-foot building will offer a comprehensive range of healthcare services, including primary care, urgent care, obstetrical and gynecological care, advanced imaging and surgical services, all designed to meet the growing demand for high-quality healthcare services in the region.

“This partnership marks an exciting milestone for InterMed and the healthcare community,” said InterMed’s CEO Roger Poitras, DHA. “The new medical office building and surgery center will provide patients with convenient access to top-tier interdisciplinary medical professionals and a wide range of healthcare services, all interconnected in one state-of-the-art environment. Our goal is to ensure that our patients — and generations to come — receive the best possible care that has become synonymous with InterMed. This investment positions us to serve both our existing valued patients and the growing demand for primary and specialty healthcare services in the region.”

Spanning two floors, the new facility, designed by E4H Architecture, will feature patient-friendly designs that strive to create a sense of welcome and belonging for all patients of InterMed. Landry French Construction will soon commence construction at the building site, with an anticipated project completion of fall 2026.

“We are honored to work with InterMed on this transformative project,” said Joe Magliochetti, chief investment officer at Remedy. “Healthcare is a vital component of any community, and Remedy is committed to delivering a facility that meets the highest standards of care, safety and efficiency.

The development of the medical office building and ASC is expected to create numerous new job opportunities in the region as the facility becomes operational. In addition to providing healthcare services, the building will serve as one of the anchors in the vibrant downtown, contributing to the vision of creating a space where residents and visitors can live, work and play.
