Dr. Amy Boutwell is a physician, healthcare strategist, and national leader in healthcare delivery improvement.

She became a doctor because she wanted to help people get what they need — not only through excellent clinical care, but by creating better healthcare delivery systems.

Dr. Boutwell brings together the expertise of an internal medicine physician, a healthcare delivery strategist, and a specialist in lifestyle medicine and menopause care. For more than 20 years, she served as an attending physician on the inpatient medicine services at Massachusetts General Hospital and Newton-Wellesley Hospital, while also leading national efforts to transform care for patients with complex medical and social needs.

Her background reflects a longstanding commitment to service, excellence, and innovation. Dr. Boutwell attended Stanford University, Brown Medical School, and the Harvard Kennedy School of Government. She trained in internal medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital and is board-certified in internal medicine, lifestyle medicine, and menopause care.

Her early work in public service included serving as an Albert Schweitzer Fellow in Boston, working as a community health worker in San Salvador, and volunteering at Mother Teresa’s Home for the Destitute and Dying in Calcutta. She received the Robert F. Kennedy Award for Excellence in Public Service and the American Medical Association Foundation Leadership Award. In 2024, she was nationally recognized for improving care for older adults through innovation, leadership, and dedication.

Today, Dr. Boutwell’s practice is dedicated to helping women 40+ restore and optimize their health in midlife. She understands that peri/menopause is not a small inconvenience. It is a major health transition — and too many women are told they are “fine” when they know they are not feeling like themselves.

Her work is grounded in clinical expertise, practical strategy, and deep respect for women who are ready to restore their health and move forward with clarity.
