## Resource

Big news for Lewiston-Auburn: St. Mary’s Hospital is bringing back its oncology services next week, ending a two-year gap in local cancer care. Partnering with MaineGeneral’s Alfond Center, the hospital will offer infusion treatments, hematology, radiation oncology, and clinical trials — all locally — starting Tuesday. This move reduces travel burdens and improves patient access, with one doctor and two providers seeing patients two days a week. It’s part of MaineGeneral’s statewide effort to expand specialized care to underserved communities.
