About
At The Lown Group, eight physicians deliver cardiovascular and primary care from their Boston practice. Nobel Peace Prize recipient Dr. Bernard Lown founded the group in 1974. His vision of patient-centered, non-invasive care still guides every clinical decision today.
The practice holds affiliations with Harvard Medical School and Mass General Brigham. Four dedicated programs serve distinct patient needs: Preventive Cardiology, Sports Cardiology, Women's Cardiology, and Non-Invasive Testing. The Preventive Cardiology Program screens for silent risk factors like metabolic syndrome before disease develops. The Sports Cardiology Program addresses the unique cardiac physiology of athletes. Drs. Dara Lee Lewis and Alyson Kelley-Hedgepeth co-direct the Women's Cardiology Program. The practice also runs regular health and wellness webinars and makes non-invasive cardiac testing available to both members and non-members.
