Karen Klimczak, grateful patient
"Before I found Dr. Maron and his team at the HCM Center, my symptoms were increasing, my generic treatment plan wasn’t working, I had countless specific questions my doctors couldn’t answer, and I felt like a number. All that changed when I arrived at Tufts MC in 2010.
"Dr. Maron, Noreen Dolan and the entire team have—since day one—made me feel like I’m their most important patient. They are always accessible, take the time to listen, expertly answer even my most detailed questions, and constantly fine-tune my treatment plan—it’s built just for me.
"I would travel anywhere to see Dr. Maron. The quality of care is truly incomparable. Today, in my late 30s, I’m pregnant with my first child—something I never would have dreamed possible until coming here.
"Thanks to the entire HCM Center team, I have my life back."
Melissa Gainer, grateful patient
“I had heard some rather frightening things about not being able to have children… It was a huge relief to meet somebody who is an expert. It’s been fantastic to have a family… and have a career."
