"When Newton Wellesley Primary Care was established, one of our primary goals was to create a practice that would deliver exemplary, compassionate, and personal care. We adopted a concierge care model that provides our patients with the highest level of care.

At Newton Wellesley Primary Care we believe that good medicine takes time. Really listening to our patients to find the right diagnosis and the best treatment plan takes longer than allowed by the current medical system. We also believe in a strong doctor-patient relationship, which is the cornerstone of our medical practice."
