Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates
Pediatricians in the Greater Boston Area

Harvard Vanguard's experienced and caring pediatricians are among the best doctors in the Greater Boston area. Whatever your location or family situation, we are likely to have a pediatrician who can fill your needs.

At Harvard Vanguard, our pediatricians believe in caring for the whole child and work to earn the trust of the parent or caregiver. Our pediatricians assess your child's health care needs, provide health education, and offer resources and support as your child grows and develops throughout the years.

We offer telephone support 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and maintain ample weekend and holiday urgent care hours at several of our locations. And when urgent situations arise after regular hours, our medical staff are available to speak with you by phone with backup from on-call pediatricians. Our electronic medical record system ensures our medical staff have easy access to your child's records and history whenever you visit or call the office.

If you'd like more information about our pediatric services, please visit us online at www.harvardvanguard.org/pediatrics or contact the Harvard Vanguard Pediatrics location nearest you. A member of our staff will answer your questions and give you a tour of the facility.

For newborns, we encourage families to select their pediatrician prior to their child's birth. If there are any significant concerns about the baby that come up during your pregnancy or if you have questions about breast-feeding, circumcision, and common pediatric conditions, we invite you to contact Harvard Vanguard Pediatrics before delivery to discuss them.

Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates
Women's Health Services in the Greater Boston Area

Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates also provides comprehensive gynecological and obstetrical care for women at every stage of life.

Care for Mother and Baby

From pre-pregnancy planning to post-delivery care and support, we provide complete clinical services and education every step of the way. We offer prenatal care, nutrition counseling, on-site ultrasound and laboratory services, advanced fetal-risk screenings, childbirth and breast-feeding education, post-partum care, and general health, nutrition and weight-loss education. Our providers are caring professionals who recognize that no two pregnancies are alike. We take the time to listen to your concerns and goals, and share your hopes to make the experience special.

Nurse Midwifery Program

The Nurse Midwifery Program at Harvard Vanguard offers comprehensive pre- and postnatal care, ongoing health education and routine gynecological services in collaboration with your obstetrician. Our midwives are registered nurses with advanced degrees and training who are certified nationally and licensed to practice in Massachusetts and attend births at Brigham and Women's Hospital, Newton-Wellesley Hospital, and Lowell General Hospital.

Our care is focused on your unique physical, social and emotional needs. We offer women a variety of options for pain relief, including hands-on relaxation techniques, hydrotherapy, pain medication or epidural anesthesia. Our philosophy encourages women to trust their bodies as they do this miraculous work. During labor, nurse midwives are there to offer support to women with a personalized approach. Think of it as having your own personal birth coach with you in the delivery room. And if medical interventions are indicated, our physicians are readily available.
