In the summer of 1993, Dr Peter O'Donnell established Harbourside Family Practice. Resurrecting the spirit of the small town family doctor. That spirit continues today, over 20 years later. We still follow our original mantra...

​

"An old fashioned Practice with today's treatment and information."

​

Harbourside Family Practice has held fast to its principles and remains one of only a handful of solo practices remaining in Southern Maine.  

 

The key benefit to a small medical practice over a large practice is access...

  • Same day evaluations

  • Comprehensive hour long physical exams

  • Thirty-minute follow-up appointments

  • Direct access to our Nurse or Providers

  • Opportunity to establish an ongoing relationship with the same practitioner

Harbourside Family Practice

Meet the Staff

Peter B. O'Donnell, M.D.

Family Medicine Physician


Dr. O'Donnell (usually called Dr. Peter) came to Maine over 25 years ago and opened his practice in Yarmouth with his wife, Mary. Here they brought up their two children who have both since graduated from college and moved on to their own careers. Dr. Peter actively engages with the outdoors through mountain biking, hiking, and boating, and he finds the Maine coast and mountains a great place to pursue a healthy active lifestyle.
