About Christine Blake Smith, DO
As a private doctor, it is important to me that you never feel like just a number. I feel fortunate that in my MDVIP-affiliated practice, I have more time and resources to provide personalized healthcare. Unrushed visits allow me to get to know my patients on a deeper level, and being in the MDVIP model gives me the tools to better help you manage your chronic conditions. In addition, I can support your health and weight loss through the use of natural supplements, nutrition and dietary counseling, and other therapies as clinically appropriate.
I’ve always believed that having a wide range of skills and knowledge can support my approach to the whole patient. This helps me support my patients in their pursuit of longevity and quality of life. I have trained in specialties, such as dermatology, gynecology, urology, cardiology, pulmonology, allergy/asthma, immunology and neurology. Board-certified in family medicine, I also hold certifications in addiction medicine, lifestyle medicine and osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT). My goal is to bring a holistic, patient-centered approach to preventative care and overall wellness.
I am proud to have received several awards in my career, including Maine Osteopathic Association’s award for “Outstanding Contribution to the Profession and Community.”
When I’m not caring for my patients or my family of seven, my life revolves around public service. I’ve provided over 1,000 hours to nonprofit organizations including the American Heart Association, where I served as board president and spokesperson for three years, American Diabetes Association, Easter Seals, Biddeford Free Clinic, Susan Komen Foundation and the Miss America Organization.

Dr Blake -Smith changed the pain pill and I was taking regularly and then found myself taking more than prescribed. I became addicted and ashamed. Without going into great detail…
Frequently Asked Questions
Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.
Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.
MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.
