Who We Are
Six leading medical groups have joined together as Atrius Health,
a non-profit alliance, to transform the delivery of health care
in eastern and central Massachusetts. Building on our long and proud history
of high quality and preventive care, Dedham Medical Associates,
Granite Medical Group, Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates, Reliant Medical Group, Southboro
Medical Group and South Shore Medical Center are working together
to create a new and proactive approach to patients' health, coordinated
by the primary care doctor and medical team.
While each of our Atrius Health medical groups continues to serve its own patients, we also act in concert to bring a broader
range of needed services to our communities. All groups utilize an electronic medical record, increasing
the ease with which patients access the wide range of specialists and diagnostic services at each Atrius Health medical group. Our
practices work together to meet aggressive goals on issues ranging from diabetes treatment and cancer screening to
decreasing wait time for patients and improving physician communication skills.
Atrius Health medical groups serve nearly 1 million adult and pediatric patients in over
3.8 million visits annually to 50 practice
locations. Our medical groups include more than 1,000 physicians and 1,425 other medical professionals, with a combined
total of almost 7,200 employees.
The combined Atrius Health practices offer over 35 specialties, from
obstetrics to pediatrics, including dental services, oncology,
cardiology, ophthalmology, sports medicine, allergy, dermatology, surgery
and behavioral health - as well as labs, imaging and pharmacies which
are conveniently located on-site in many of our offices.
For those cases when our patients require hospital-based services, the medical groups of Atrius Health are affiliated
with leading area teaching and community hospitals. Our doctors and other providers accept most major health insurance
plans, including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, Fallon Community Health Plan, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, Neighborhood Health Plan,
Tufts Health Plan, and Tufts Medicare Preferred.

We would like to thank the following business partners for their contribution to our 2011 Boston Heart Walk team:
