Maine Osteopathic association celebrates leadership and excellence in medicine at 114 annual convention

Rockport, ME - The Maine Osteopathic Association (MOA) celebrated its 114th Annual Convention

June 13–15, 2025, at the Samoset Resort in

Rockport. The hybrid event welcomed more than

100 osteopathic physicians, medical students, and

guests for continuing medical education,

professional development, and a series of

celebrations—including the installation of new

leadership and recognition of outstanding

members of the osteopathic community.

This year’s Convention marked the beginning of a new chapter for the MOA, as Kathryn Brandt, DO  was officially welcomed as the Association’s next President. Dr. Brandt is a proud alumna of the University of New England College of Osteopathic Medicine (UNE COM) and a widely respected physician-educator.

She is board-certified in Family Medicine and Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine, and has devoted her career to teaching, advocacy, and the integration of osteopathic principles into primary care and chronic disease management.

Dr. Brandt has held leadership roles at Maine-Dartmouth Family Medicine Residency and UNE COM, and has served on the MOA Board of Directors since 2017.

She now steps into the role of President for a two-year term from 2025 to 2027.
