We serve the Boston area including the most vulnerable of our community, as Boston Medical Center is the largest indigent care center in the city. To accomplish this we have a mentorship based model where decision-making for individual patients in a shared decision making model is stressed as the most important element. The model also allows for the routine teaching of problem-based philosophy of care including the technical details of surgery. Residents &amp; fellows are taught evidence based care and critical analysis consistently through experiences in clinic, lectures, critical analysis journal clubs, and the completion of research projects.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5>Program Updates (11\/7\/2025)<\/h5>\n<header><\/header>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmc.org\/top-doctors-2025\"><img loading=\"lazy\"
