• There aren't enough characters for me to say all the nice things about Dr Dutton. He truly is such an amazing clinician and caring human. And as a nurse who has worked for MGH since the 90's I am more aware than most that having BOTH qualities in such abundance makes him a unicorn. He is an asset to MGH and humanity.

• Dr. Dutton is truly exceptional. Their blend of expertise, empathy, and clear communication makes every visit an experience of good quality care. I feel completely at ease speaking openly, knowing I'll receive information that is both thoughtfully detailed and appropriately nuanced. It's rare to find a physician who brings such skill and humanity to every interaction--especially with life-long issues such as obesity, so often misunderstood. Highly recommended. Also, kudos to the entire weight center staff!
