Dear MIT Community Members and Friends,
We are excited and proud to announce that, effective today, MIT Medical is officially MIT Health. Starting now, you will begin seeing new logos, new signs, a new website (health.mit.edu), new medical forms, and you might even spot some new MIT Health mugs, tote bags, and outerwear around campus. We’re also renovating our Campus Care Center, in Building E23, with brighter, welcoming spaces, improved exam rooms, and an expanded space for our Student Mental Health & Counseling and Embedded Behavioral Health teams.
A lot is changing. But the most important thing is staying exactly the same — our deep commitment to the health and wellness of the MIT community. It’s an attitude and approach that we call Infinite Caring.
We invite you to enjoy the video below. It explains our unwavering drive and motivation to keep MIT healthy, and how that commitment has been deeply woven into the fabric of the Institute for more than 100 years. Our team of nearly 300 medical professionals routinely goes the extra mile to provide compassion and understanding and is dedicated to helping you become the best you can be.
MIT Health is here for the entire MIT community. Our wide range of services includes classes and programs, occupational health, student mental health and counseling, sports medicine and orthopedics, public health and vaccination clinics, urgent care, family medicine, and much more. Whether or not you get your primary care in building E23 or at our Lexington Care Center, MIT Health has something for you.
As Dr. Karen Singleton puts it in the video, “It’s not just a doctor’s office. It’s something much bigger than that.”
If you haven’t done so — or if it has been a while — we invite you to explore our offerings. Patients on the MIT PPO+ plan can use nearly all our services without a referral and without a primary care provider. And even if you aren’t on MIT-sponsored insurance, we encourage you to look into our community-wide programming such as MIT Health’s getfit challenge or our wellness classes.
When you need us, we are here for you, and we are here to care for you.
Sincerely,
Cecilia Stuopis, MD
Chief Health Officer
MIT Health
