In the 18 months since the merger of its two competitors, Mercy Hospital has grown to nearly full capacity.

Maine Medical Center president Don McDowell points out that the merger allowed Maine Medical and Brighton Medical to consolidate completely and serve patients with fewer employees and at lower cost.
