About Rebecca Kolp, MD
I am a general Obstetrician/Gynecologist. I see both gynecologic and obstetric patients in the Waltham office location. I am honored to have been selected to serve as the Medical Director at MGH West since 2003.
I spent eight years training at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, where I completed both medical school and residency. I graduated from Johns Hopkins in 1999. I came to the Massachusetts General Hospital in 2001 as an Attending Physician.
I have always believed that each patient deserves to be treated as I would wish my mother or sister to be treated. For that reason, I strive to provide the absolute best care to each of my patients. I take care of obstetrical patients, including those with multiple pregnancies, advanced maternal age, and those desiring a vaginal delivery after a Cesarean section. My goal is for each patient to have the delivery she wants, while ensuring her safety as well as the safety of her baby.
I also take care of gynecologic patients with a wide variety of problems including, but not limited to, difficulties with menses, fibroids, abnormal pap smears, ovarian cysts, a family history of gynecologic disorders, for birth control, vaginal discharge, etc. I provide both the medical and surgical solutions patients require to improve these conditions. I attempt always to provide this care with the compassion I would wish for myself.
Throughout my career, I have been an active teacher and instructor. I think that my greatest contribution to residents and medical students as a teacher is to convey to them the importance of this level of compassion and to teach them the operative skills necessary to be great surgeons.
Outside of my clinic hours I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking and exploring new places. I also love good books and exercising.

Dr Kolp is the best.
I love Dr. Kolp. I'll always be grateful for her help when a PET scan done [redacted] showed intense signal in the R chest wall.

Without Dr. Kolp and her team's help I don't think ... Read More
Dr. Kolp is the only doctor that I feel comfortable going to, and I don't worry. She treats every patient like family, I believe, because she's always treated me with kindness, respect, and she's very smart. She's thought of things I didn't even think to ask, and I appreciate her very much.
Dr Rebecca Kolp is by far the best OB/GYN one could ask for. She has been with me through complicated prenatal care, the birth of my twin girls, & then my son.... & the many ups & downs of life over the last 20+ years. She is not only an exceptionally wonderful physician, but also is the most conscientious & kind human being who ... Read More

Excellent!!!!!
I was very fortunate to get an appointment with Dr. Kolp, as referred by my primary care physician. She expedited the appointment given some potentially concerning lab findings. I found it incredibly reassuring that she saw me so quickly and was very comprehensive in her feedback and education. I was immensely impressed with the workings of the ... Read More
