• Tremont Physician's Office About Hopedale Medical Complex For more than 70 years, Hopedale Medical Complex has provided exceptional, patient-centered healthcare close to home.

We are an independent, nonprofit Critical Access Hospital rooted in a small-town community—but the scope of care we provide is anything but small. What makes HMC special is the relationship between our patients, physicians, and care teams. Many of our physicians provide both primary care and general surgical services, creating a continuity of care and personal connection that is increasingly rare in healthcare. Our patients are our neighbors, friends, and families, and many have trusted HMC with their care for generations. From our 25-bed hospital, 24-hour Emergency Department, ICU, and four operating rooms to primary and specialty care, advanced surgical services, diagnostic imaging, rehabilitation, long-term care, senior living, and wellness services, HMC provides the capabilities of a larger health system with the personal connection of community healthcare.
