Weather Advisory: Temporary Door Closure

Due to extreme cold, access through the Moakley Building's entrance off Boston Medical Center Place will be temporarily closed from 5 p.m. Friday, Jan. 30, through 7 a.m. Monday, Feb. 2.

All patients and visitors should use the main entrance for the Menino and Yawkey Buildings during this time. The hospital remains open and operating as normal.

We appreciate your patience as we take these precautions during severe winter weather.

Your physician will ask you a series of questions and is likely to do a physical exam. The physical exam will include examining any specific areas of concern, especially as they relate to the reason for your visit to the office. The physical exam may include feeling the pelvic area to find enlarged ovaries or fluid in the abdomen area (ascites).
