About Jeremy Goverman, MD
After obtaining my Medical Degree, I spent 9 years obtaining specializations that would allow me to provide the highest quality burn care to my patients - from the moment of injury, to discharge from the hospital, and then re-entry into the community. After a five year residency in General Surgery, I received additional training in burn surgery, surgical critical care, and plastic surgery. This has afforded me the unique privilege of treating patients with burns throughout their recovery. As part of the multidisciplinary team of burn care providers at the Sumner Redstone Burn Center and the Fraser Outpatient Burn Center at MGH, we can handle the most complex burn injuries.
In addition to the comprehensive treatment of acute burns and burn reconstructive surgery, we also specialize in the treatment and cosmetic restoration of scarring from all causes. Our Scar and Laser Program within the Burn Center utilizes the latest technologies to help prevent, treat, and minimize scarring.
