Family Medicine

10 Gove Street, East Boston, MA

Dr. Eileen Pierce is a family medicine specialist in East Boston, MA and Boston, MA. She is a graduate of Boston University School of Medicine.

"I have been a patient of Dr. Pierce since transition from adolescent medicine, that's 16 years. My husband is also her patient for the past 13-14 years. She is AMAZING! Actively listens to our concerns, is sensitive, is very supportive. She is on time, completes refill requests, referral requests, and form requests in a timely manner. SHE IS THE BEST! We love Dr. Pierce and are very grateful to have her as our PCP. If one day we are blessed to have children, she will without a doubt be our children's PCP as well. Side note: I am an obese patient and Dr. Pierce has NEVER brushed off any symptom or blamed anything on my weight. Also, my husband and I have been going through IVF for 5 years and she involved in our journey. With Dr. Pierce you don’t have to worry about feeling like an MRN, she becomes family. "

What is Family Medicine?

Currently in medical care in the United States, there are four main primary care specialties: family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, and geriatrics. Internal medicine is primary care for adults, pediatrics is primary care for children and infants, and geriatrics is primary care for seniors. Family medicine, the broadest specialty, is primary care for all ages.

A family medicine physician is a medical 'home base' for patients. They treat all ages, all sexes, all organs, and all diseases. They can see every member of the family, from birth through old age. This allows family medicine doctors to develop long-term relationships with their patients and to understand how their patients' role in the family affects their health. They can provide check-ups, immunizations, screening services, gynecological exams and obstetric care, routine health care, and health counseling. When more specialized care is needed, a family medicine doctor can refer their patients to appropriate specialists. They can become educators and advocates for their patients in the sometimes overwhelming health care system.

As health care changes in this country, family medicine is a growing specialty for families and individuals who are seeking more personalized health care and a more personal relationship with their physician.
