We’re thrilled to welcome Dr. Barry Migicovsky, gastroenterologist, to BMC! It’s always exciting when a new provider joins our team—not just for the expertise they bring but also for how they enrich the relationships that define our care model.

As a local, independent, physician-owned group, we’re more than a multi-specialty practice—we’re a collaborative community. Our providers work closely across specialties to share knowledge, support each other, and deliver high-quality care for every patient.

That’s the BMC difference.
