Adolescents and young adults may come to the Division of Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine at Mass General Brigham for Children for primary care or specialty care.
Many adolescents and young adults who are in transition between pediatric medicine and internal medicine, or are in college or newly employed, prefer the adolescent and young adult medicine setting for their medical care.
