Dr. Putman is the best. Always welcoming with a smile, she gets down to business. After a thorough review we discuss helpful options. She always shows empathy for my short comings! Totally patient centered, I know I am getting the best care. I always leave feeling better and confident with our plan. Dr. Putman is a doctor of excellence and a huge asset to MGB. And to me as well! I'm grateful for her patient dedication!

Dr. Putman is the physician we all wish we had. Her specialty is endocrinology yet she always takes my whole life into account when putting together a plan of care. She's an extraordinary listener and medical communicator, extremely thoughtful in her answers, takes my concerns and questions seriously and when appropriate and welcome, she shares insights into other parts of my healthcare and lifestyle. Her deep knowledge and clinical insights have at times left me awestruck. I've been seeing Dr. Putman for 14 years and have always found her to be extraordinary on all levels. She's truly brilliant and deeply caring. I'm extremely fortunate. I don't give these highest recommendations to just anyone. Dr. Putman is a 12 out of 10.

Dr. Melissa Putman is very professional, kind, compassionate, very informative, well-educated, provided visual directions and I'm sorry, provided like a visual of what the spine looks like when we started talking about the bone density test and really made it very easy to comprehend what the results meant. I appreciate her expertise and I look forward to her visits always. Thank you.
