BMH establishes new family practice in Brattleboro

BRATTLEBORO — Brattleboro Memorial Hospital announces the creation of a new primary care practice, Brattleboro Family Medicine, which opened Jan. 3 at 53 Fairview St.

The practice, comprised of Lauren McClure, M.D., Janine Foote, D.O., and Peter Foote, D.O., will offer personal care for whole families under the umbrella of BMH Physician Group, the hospital's newly formed network of medical providers serving the greater Brattleboro area.

After establishing a solo practice in late 2010, Dr. McClure made the decision to join with the Footes in order to offer cross physician coverage, full nursing services, and access to the BMH Physician Group's appointment scheduling, registration, and coordinated billing services.

Dr. McClure received her medical degree from University of Massachusetts (Worcester) and completed her three-year residency at Maine-Dartmouth Family Practice Residency in Augusta, Maine.

She is board-certified in family practice and worked at the Sheepscot Valley Health Center prior to moving to Vermont.

Dr. Peter Foote received his medical degree from Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine and completed his residency at Hunterdon Medical Center in Flemington, N.J. He is board certified in family medicine and is a fellow in the American Academy of Family Physicians.

Dr. Foote worked at Duke Medicine in Raleigh, N.C., before moving to the Brattleboro area with his wife and three young children.

Dr. Janine Foote received her medical degree and served her internship at Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine before completing her residency at Hunterdon Medical Center in Flemington, N.J. She is also board certified in family medicine.

The Fairview Street building also houses the office of Dr. Dean Bresnahan.

Dr. Jeffrey Newcomer and Dr. Todd Dombrowski of the Dartmouth Hitchcock Clinic have relocated to 191 Clark Ave. Phone numbers have remained the same for Dr. Bresnahan, Dr. Newcomer and Dr. Dombrowski.
