My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...

Internal medicine has evolved into a complex specialty combined with other care known as primary care. It requires more than a time-pressured visit with a “provider.” My goal is to manage your medical needs by using my 37 years of teaching and patient care at my academic medical center, Boston Medical Center, to better help you improve your health. 

My experience allows me to partner with my patients to provide a personalized and academic approach. My prior research and teaching history has focused on hypertension, cardiovascular health and prevention. As a private doctor, I have the time that is needed to help each of my patients be well and stay well. Imagine a practice where you come first - my passion is to make that a reality. The individualized attention offered in my office is helping my patients take charge of their health and achieve their goals. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments that start on time.  

I am affiliated with Boston Medical Center Hospital. Although most of my primary care patients reside in greater Boston, I see patients from all over New England.

from William in MA March 5, 2018 for Charles P. Tifft, MD, FAHA

I began seeing Dr. Tifft about 20 years ago. At that time I was in really dire straits. I could hardly walk, had a difficult time breathing, and was so extremely weak.
