As the first charitable physician group practice in the community, Dartmouth Hitchcock Nashua (previously known as Matthew Thornton Health Plan) has committed itself to the health care needs of the greater Nashua area. On January 16, 2012, Dartmouth Hitchcock Nashua opened a brand-new, state-of-the-art, ambulatory care facility providing patients with the most effective and efficient and comprehensive care available for our patients in the region.
Today, Dartmouth Hitchcock Nashua is a dynamic physician-led organization with more than 100 providers, providing basic (primary) and specialty care to the whole family. Dartmouth Hitchcock Nashua is part of the growing Dartmouth Hitchcock health care system, which includes the nationally recognized teaching and research care facility, Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, 90 miles north in Lebanon.
Patients and providers benefit from convenient in-house lab and radiology services; urgent appointments for same day, evening, and weekend care; an onsite endoscopy suite; and extensive radiology services include Bone Density testing (DEXA), MRI and CT services. As a multi-specialty group practice, an array of primary and specialty services is available, under one roof. Outpatient tertiary care is also onsite, including reproductive endocrinology/infertility services provided by specialists who travel from Lebanon. The Nashua practice also includes specialists from the Children’s Hospital at Dartmouth (CHaD) and Norris Cotton Cancer Center, a National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer center.
Dartmouth Hitchcock Nashua is part of the Dartmouth Hitchcock Clinic, which includes four major group practice locations in picturesque southern New Hampshire: Concord, Keene, Manchester and Nashua. All have a sophisticated electronic health records system and a self-insured, well-organized risk management and liability system, making it one of the premier health systems in New England.
