About Brian Wishart, DO
Dr. Wishart attended Lehigh University focusing on a degree in Ecology. Following this he moved to Philadelphia and completed a Masters degree in Medical Science. He then attended Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine for his medical degree and completed a teaching fellowship while there focusing on functional anatomy and manual therapy. Following this, at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and Nemours/Alfred I. DuPont Hospital for Children he completed a combined residency in both pediatrics and physical medicine and rehabilitation.
He is board certified in Pediatrics and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and will be pursuing his subspecialty certification in Pediatric Rehabilitation Medicine. He is focusing on building more cohesive program at the MassGeneral Hospital for Children as well as providing additional services at Spaulding Charlestown, Lexington and Salem. He will also be working on expanding the adapted sports program for children with disabilities.
He has a big interest in the outdoors and loves to take his daughters and dogs hiking as often as possible. The joy he finds from the outdoors comes into his practice in working to get his patients back out doing the things they love.
