In patients' words
"I couldn't be happier with a primary care doctor. Dr Balkin is more thorough than any other doctor I've ever had... She listens, is curious, follows up, and always communicates her thoughts about her follow-ups with detailed emails."
— Mass General Brigham patient review for Dr. Miranda S Balkin"Dr. Parsons has been my primary care doctor for 30+ years. I trust him completely, and have never had a bad visit. Very fine Dr. because he LISTENS!"
— Mass General Brigham patient review for Dr. Timothy V Parsons"My mother was a regular patient here — until they abruptly informed her that, starting August 1st, she would need to pay a $350 annual 'membership fee' just to keep her appointment. No meaningful notice was given."
