About Concierge Medicine in Massachusetts
Massachusetts ranks eighth nationally for concierge medicine practices, tied with Tennessee. NextMD lists 103 practices across 54 Massachusetts cities, with an average membership of $161/mo per month.
The state's market is defined by a paradox: Massachusetts has some of the best hospitals in the world and the worst primary care access in the country. A 2025 AMN Healthcare survey found that the average wait for a new physician appointment in Boston is 67 days, the highest of any of the 15 major metros surveyed. Dermatology averages 93 days. That access crisis is the primary driver of concierge demand.
Mass General Concierge Medicine ($10,000/year, 5 physicians) is the flagship. MD2 Boston limits each doctor to 50 families. Wellesley (10 practices including Synergy Private Health with 300-patient cap and on-site yoga/acupuncture) is the strongest suburban market. The MetroWest corridor has more concierge practices than downtown Boston. Worcester (3 practices) is entirely DPC, from $60/month at Faucher Direct Care. A national actuarial study found that concierge patients visit the ER 40% less often than traditional patients. For a broader look at how concierge medicine pricing works across the US, Massachusetts is a premium market with limited DPC.
