State of Brigham Operations: We're Here for You

The health and safety of our patients, visitors and staff is our top priority and guides every decision we make. Recognizing that COVID-19 is with us for the foreseeable future, we are taking a comprehensive approach to prevent the spread of infectious diseases. We want to assure you that we are steadfast in our commitment to your health and safety.

Expert Patient Care Tailored to Your Needs

Wherever you are in your health journey, our health care providers are here to provide the expert care you need and help you achieve the best possible outcomes. Brigham providers are actively seeing patients in person, performing surgeries and other procedures, and delivering care at our outpatient facilities.

Our teams have been leaders in COVID-19 research and clinical care. You can be confident that we use thoughtful, science-based approaches to deliver care in the safest possible way. For patients who prefer to receive care from home, we also offer Virtual Visits and virtual consultations for surgeries and procedures.

Don’t Delay Care

If you have questions about seeking care at this time, our health care providers will partner with you to address your concerns and develop a treatment plan that’s right for you. Delaying health care can be especially harmful to patients with chronic health conditions, patients with symptoms of emergency health conditions and those with new health concerns.

Even if you’re healthy, routine screenings and physicals are a critical part of maintaining your health and wellness. They can help providers catch new health problems sooner, when you may have more treatment options. These screenings are especially important if you have a family history or other risk factors for conditions like colon cancer, breast cancer, high blood pressure and diabetes. Our providers are here to ensure you get the routine care you need and help keep your health on track.
