Reviews of Paul S. Russell, MD Museum of Medical History and Innovation at Massachusetts General Hospital

Connolly K

Great little museum with a beautiful rooftop terrace, a great view of MGH, clean and handicap accessible facilities. Happened upon the place after a medical appointment and was really impressed. Was a nice breath of fresh air and a breather from the hectic hospital area. Free admission and high informational, glad to have visited and I look forward to visiting again in the future. All gender restrooms and friendly staff make this museum truly a gem!

Jeffrey Hom

Very interesting history of MGH and it being the first place of practice for medical students out of Harvard. Free admission, informative, and has a beautiful rooftop garden. Definitely worth checking out if around the area :)

Faisal Chaudhry

Decent museum of MGH history - worth a visit if you're in the neighborhood, but not otherwise. Doesn't actually have that many historic objects, but it will still be interesting if you're interested in medicine. Rooftop patio on the fourth floor, but isn't high enough to get a good view. Takes an hour to get through everything.

Daniel Queiroz

Amazing place! Actually the Dome is located at 4th floor of Massachusetts General Hospital!

This museum threw back memories of cool stuffs like minor surgical instruments with historical background, lights microscopes, medical diagnostics/imaging information about human brain, etc. It also has interactive touch screen computers and not so interactive Electronic Health Record (EPIC), and many more.. Those were things I could remember. Overall it's a pretty informative, small yet cozy, centrally located and free museum. Highly recommended.

I was fortunate enough to find this place on Google Maps completely by accident, I knew I had to pay a visit as a medicine enthusiast. It's a pretty small museum, but still, I spent there a ridiculous amount of time. I'm only a medic but the medical language was simple enough for me, yet I'm sure pretty informing and interesting to people more knowledgeable than I. The staff was really kind and helpful, answered questions and taught me interesting things. Would recommend anyone with passion for the medical field from any background and level of knowledge!

Small museum of medical history. Nicely laid out, spacious. I particularly liked the interactive displays that help visitors walk through some diagnostic indicators. I did not finish (ran out of time) so i did not get to upper floors, but this is a good, informative way to spend a few hours, and helps visitors learn a bit about how medicine, as a field, happens. Not noticeable from traffic. I saw it because i was walking by, but in Boston walking is the only sane choice.

David Fasman

A great trip down surgical memory lane. And it's free! Also definitely go to the ether dome.

Carlos Medina

Great museum about the MGH, bur missing much info regarding non-US medicine. Most of the exhibit is in the first floor with easy access for everyone, and the second floor is mainly a lecture area and paintings. The roof garden is very nice for a break on your walkabout, since it's halfway from/to the Science Museum and Faneuille hall.

Coli Cole-French

This is a lovely museum and free. But the second floor was being used for a meeting so off-limits. The top floor is a lovely rooftop garden. A must stop for picnic lunch or just a little quite above the city.

Eetu Pajala

A small museum of Medical history and innovation (made in Boston). Good for a half an hour walk through even if you're not super interested in medicine. Nice rooftop garden to sit down and rest your legs.

Allan

A charming public museum about MGH and medical history. Fascinating for both medically inclined and history buffs. Well laid out with nice displays, the science is, of course, simplified for the general public, but with enough substance to satisfy those with a technical or medical background. A very nice PR and neighborly effort by this venerable institution, and an easy walk from the MGH T station. Don't miss the healing garden at the top of the Yawkey building.

Juan C. Sanchez-Arias

A visit to this museum plus a walking around the Ether Dome are a must for any doctor regardless age, country of origin or specialty. Small, yes, but its content is invaluable and even touching for us who love our noble profession.

Thomas DiJulio

Fun and interesting place, especially considering it's free. Staff are really friendly and informative. Exhibits were dynamic and captivating. Dont forget to vsiit the rooftoo garden. Nice to be able to learn about the ether dome and walk across the street to see it.

Todd Hammond

Hidden gem? Its sitting right there, waiting for you to visit - lots of neat things to see from Mass General's history. And the top floor has a beautiful garden. Go!

Ayman Ali

It's a well done but really small museum, won't take you longer than an hour to explore it all. It's worth stopping by especially if you work at MGH.

Joshua Brunton

If you are a science or medical nerd this is a must! Amazing displays showing some of the innovation that have happened and been pioneered in Boston. Make sure to go see the Ether dome too!

Michael Auß

(Translation) Good museum to visit if you have free time. It is not so big, however you learn a lot of stuff about mgh's history, medicine history and diseases. There is also a little garden at the 4th floor. It is free to visit the museum during the weekdays from 9 am -5 pm. But it is closed at the weekend. There are also interactive computers that you can diagnose a patient or find out more about medicine stuff. You should go if you are nearby. A good museum to visit if you have time. It's not very big but you learn quite a bit about the history of mgh, the history of medicine and diseases. It has a small garden on the 4th floor. Open 9-5 on weekdays but closed on weekends. There are interactive computers for watching videos or diagnosing patients. If you're around, you can stop by. (Original) Good museum to visit if you have free time.

Çok büyük değil ama mgh'in tarihi, tıp tarihi ve hastalıklar hakkında bayağı bir şey öğreniyorsunuz. 4. katta küçük bir bahçesi var. Hafta içi 9 - 5 arası açık ama haftasonu kapalı. Video izlemek ya da hasta teşhisi yapmak için interaktif bilgisayarlar var. Civardaysanız uğrayabilirsiniz.

(Translation) Being in Boston and not going to the Massachusetts General Hospital museum. The first anesthesia and research in functional resonance imaging, heart transplant surgery, DNA research and the latest in cancer treatment by immunity were performed there. It is incredible so much contribution to humanity. (Original) Estar en Boston y no ir al museo de Hospital General Massachussets . Alli se realizó la primera anestesia y las investigaciones en resonancia funcional, cirugía de transplante cardiaco , investigacion del ADN y lo ultimo en tratamiento cancer por inmunidad. Es increible tanto aporte a la humanidad.
