Dr. Michael Osborne is a cardiologist at Massachusetts General Hospital, Associate Director of Nuclear Cardiology: Education at Massachusetts General Hospital, and Assistant Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. He graduated summa cum laude with membership in Tau Beta Pi with a degree in biomedical engineering from Vanderbilt University in 2006. He subsequently graduated with honors and membership in the Gold Humanism Honor Society and Alpha Omega Alpha from the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine in 2010. Dr. Osborne completed his internship and residency in internal medicine at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School in 2013. He completed his clinical and research fellowships in cardiovascular medicine and cardiovascular imaging at the Massachusetts General Hospital in 2018.
Dr. Osborne’s research uses advanced cardiovascular imaging techniques, especially positron emission tomography, to investigate the mechanisms linking psychosocial and environmental stressors to cardiometabolic diseases and to identify early markers of cardiovascular risk. In addition, he is interested in using imaging to characterize the impact of interventions on the link between chronic stress and cardiometabolic disease. Beyond his research, Dr. Osborne is a clinician with interests in nuclear cardiovascular imaging and preventive cardiology.

Cardiometabolic disease has emerged as a growing public health problem across the world. While a large proportion of cardiometabolic disease risk arises from heritable factors and health behaviors, it has hypothesized for years that psychosocial and environmental stressors contribute to the development of these pathologies. Nevertheless, the mechanisms are incompletely defined. Dr. Osborne's research implements advanced cardiovascular imaging, specifically positron emission tomography, to: 1) understand the mechanisms that link psychosocial and environmental stressors to cardiometabolic diseases, 2) identify early markers of cardiometabolic risk, and 3) evaluate the effect of interventions on imaging biomarkers of cardiometabolic diseases.
Wonderful doctor and person. Very attention to detail.
The provider was conscientious and intelligent and also took the time to answer my questions and took a lot of time to do the office visit, which is a rarity in today's medical industry. I would highly recommend him to anyone. He's very good.

Dr. Osborne is my doctor and I want to see no one else but him. I get along fine with him and he's a good doctor.
Dr. Osborne talked in very plain English language. I'm [redacted] years old, and I had no problem understanding what he said. I liked his kind manner and his humorous attitude. Anyways, he was terrific. I'd definitely recommend him anytime. One of the best I've ever been to see, actually. Wonderful man. Thanks.
