Boston Medical Center is a Level One Trauma Center and the largest and busiest provider of trauma and emergency services in New England. Due to the high volume of trauma cases at BMC, our surgeons are experts in trauma, as well as in treating complex fractures, non-union fractures, and fracture-related infections.
Our physicians and staff guide each patient from diagnosis and treatment through recovery, helping them regain their pre-injury activity level whenever possible.
