Lahey Primary Care in Burlington

Opened in 2018, the Nancy M. Cammarata Center for General Internal Medicine offers primary care services at 67 South Bedford Street in Burlington.

These offices were designed with your convenience in mind. They feature a radiology suite for x-rays, a phlebotomy station for blood draws, and a pharmacy to help us provide seamless care. More than 56 physicians and advanced practitioners see roughly 125,000 patients a year in this state-of-the-art center.

If you need to schedule a routine periodic examination, a follow-up visit, same-day appointments for illness or injury, specialty referral requests or prescription renewals, call 781-744-7000 and ask to speak to your primary care physician’s office or the prescription renewal coordinator. A medical secretary will arrange a time for you. To promote continuity of care, these appointments are made whenever possible with your PCP or another member of your health care team.

Appointments for physical exams and return visits are available 8:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday through Friday.

Our Primary Care Facility Honors Donor's Mother

 “We are incredibly grateful for this generous donation,” David Longworth, MD, Chief Medical Officer at Lahey Hospital & Medical Center, said when the facility opened. “This gift has allowed us to build a state-of-the-art facility, which will enhance the patient experience and allow us to expand access to care to the community.”

Nancy Michelle Cammarata was born in 1914 in New York City to Italian immigrant parents and worked for 50 years as a seamstress in New York’s Garment District.

“I never would have enjoyed business success without her support and encouragement,” said Ben Cammarata, who served on the Lahey Clinic Foundation Board of Trustees from 2000 to 2009. “I’m extremely pleased and so proud to be associated with Lahey and fortunate to contribute in some way.”

Ben Cammarata is the founder and former chairman of The TJX Companies, the leading off-price retailer of apparel and home fashions in the United States and around the world. An avid baseball fan, he was a part owner of the Boston Red Sox from 2002 until 2007.
