Letter to Referring Physicians
Dear colleagues and friends:

As many of you know, the Boston Adult Congenital Heart (BACH) and Pulmonary Hypertension (PHT) program was created in 1990 and began accepting patients in 1992. It was formed in response to the highly specialized needs of a rapidly expanding patient population - Adults with Congenital Heart Disease (ACHD). As we expected, the number of patients and families cared for by the BACH team has grown and grown, and thankfully, so has our team. Our current BACH caregiver group consists of full time staff cardiologists, additional dedicated staff cardiologists, cardiovascular surgeons, mid-level practitioners, dedicated fellows, and two administrators.
