No. Most people end up moving to Southern Maine or out of state if they have medical issues. Most major medical surgeries, treatments, etc. are done Bangor south. There are some mental health facilities in Aroostook, I think NMMC has the only pediatric psych ward in Aroostook, the next closest is Bangor. Aroostook is beautiful, senic, and a great place to live in a fairly safe environment, but it's a nightmare for medical care.
