CHP to Expand Services with New Dental Practice in North Adams

Print Story | Email Story

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Community Health Programs is expanding its healthcare network by bringing dental services to its medical practice location at 71 Hospital Ave. The newly named CHP North Adams Family Medicine and Dental Center will welcome new patients beginning in mid-March.

"We look forward to welcoming new patients at our North Adams dental office," said Lia Spiliotes, CEO of Community Health Programs, which also has dental practices in Pittsfield and Great Barrington and medical and wrap-around services throughout Berkshire County. "By offering both medical and dental at one site, we are able to continue our practice of whole-person care to our patients and provide easy access to providers."

Spiliotes said CHP is working closely with Pittsfield based Hillcrest Dental Care.

"Hillcrest had no plans to close its North Berkshire site, but after we learned that CHP was expanding their dental services, we at Hillcrest decided it makes sense for us to close our North Adams facility, knowing the community would be well-served," said Gerard Burke, president/CEO of Hillcrest Dental Care, Inc.



There will be several months of overlap between CHP's opening and HDC's North Adams facility closing.

CHP North Adams Family Medical and Dental Center will share offices, reception and support staff on the third floor of the 71 Hospital Ave. The dental center will initially have office hours three days a week, staffed by a dentist, dental hygienist and dental assistant.

For appointments and more information call CHP North Adams Family Medical and Dental Center at 413-664-4088.
