About MDI Health Rooted in Community. Inspired by Care. MDI Health isn't just a place where care is delivered — it's where care begins, where it grows, and where it connects us all. Located in the heart of Bar Harbor, surrounded by the rugged beauty of Acadia National Park, MDI Health is deeply woven into the fabric of island life. We're not just serving a community — we are the community. A Place Where You Belong. At MDI Health, every team member is more than a healthcare professional — they're a neighbor, a friend, a familiar face in the grocery store or on the hiking trail. We believe that healing happens best when people feel seen, supported, and valued. That's why we foster a workplace where everyone belongs, where voices are heard, and where your contributions truly matter. Small Town Heart, Big Impact. Though we serve a small, close-knit population, our reach is wide and our impact deep. We offer a full spectrum of care — from family medicine and behavioral health to emergency services and specialty care — all grounded in compassion and clinical excellence. Our partnerships with organizations like Penn Medicine and the MDI Biological Laboratory help us bring world-class resources to our rural setting. A Culture of Connection. We believe that wellness is a shared journey. Whether it's through community wellness programs, school-based health initiatives, or simply taking the time to listen, we're here to walk alongside our patients and each other. Our team is collaborative, mission-driven, and always ready to lend a hand — or an ear. Come Grow With Us. Working at MDI Health means being part of something bigger than yourself. It means joining a team that values your well-being, supports your growth, and celebrates your unique strengths.
