Dr. Bruce Kalow, MD

Dr. Bruce Kalow, MD

Pediatrician
300 Broadway, Somerville, MA
Dr. Bruce Kalow, MD, is a primary care physician at Somerville Pediatrics, part of the CHA Broadway Medical Center in Somerville. He sees patients aged 17 years and under. Dr. Kalow chose pediatrics because he believes caring for children is the most important part of medicine—they are our future. He enjoys working with children due to the continuity of care, often knowing many families for years and now caring for the children of his first patients. Children are usually healthy, and illnesses tend to be self-limited, so there is little tragedy in his work. He also cares for many families with children who have special needs, including mothers with substance abuse issues, many from the New Day program in Somerville. Over the years, Dr. Kalow has been involved in numerous system-wide improvement projects, including work with the electronic health record. In the past year, he has served as the physician leader for the patient-centered medical home pilot project, an innovative care model for primary care sites. Dr. Kalow earned his Doctor of Medicine from Johns Hopkins University and completed his residency at Massachusetts General Hospital. Outside of work, he is an avid cyclist and enjoys running.
