We are currently experiencing issues with our fax lines; we are only intermittently receiving faxes for records and prescriptions at the moment. We are working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

My name is Richard King and I am a general surgeon. I was drawn to pursuing a medical career because of my desire to make a real difference in the lives of individuals. Surgery is direct intervention to make people well.
The most rewarding aspect of my job is witnessing a person who would most certainly die without surgical intervention and see them walk out of the hospital.
I look forward to working closely with my InterMed primary care partners to help them decide on surgery for their patients, working toward the best possible outcomes.
When I am not working, I enjoy sailing in Casco Bay and hiking and skiing in the Rangeley Lakes area.
