2026 Top Doctors Guide Recognizes Two Hebrew SeniorLife Physicians

Boston Magazine has published its Top Doctors 2026 list, which includes Hebrew SeniorLife’s Lewis Lipsitz, MD, and Dae Hyun Kim, MD, MPH, ScD.

The list features 2,511 peer-nominated physicians across 81 specialties in the Greater Boston area. The annual directory is compiled in partnership with health care research firm Castle Connolly Medical Ltd. 

Lewis Lipsitz, MD, is director of the Hinda and Marcus Institute for Aging Research; chief academic officer and the Irving and Edyth S. Usen and Family Chair in Medical Research at Hebrew SeniorLife; professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School; and physician and former chief of the Division of Gerontology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.   

Since 2021, Dr. Lipsitz has served as the editor-in-chief of The Journal of Gerontology, Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences. His research focuses on age-related alterations in blood pressure and cerebral blood flow regulation and their relationship to falls, syncope, and cognitive dysfunction. He has been recognized by Boston Magazine’s Top Doctors list for nearly 20 years.

Dae Hyun Kim, MD, MPH, ScD, is associate director and senior scientist at the Marcus Institute; professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School; and an attending geriatrician in the Division of Gerontology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. 

As a geriatrician, researcher, and mentor, Dr. Kim is committed to improving the care of older adults by incorporating frailty into clinical care, research, and population health. Toward this mission, Dr. Kim founded and directs the Frailty Research Center at the Marcus Institute. Funded by grants from the National Institute on Aging, Harvard Catalyst, the Medical Foundation, and the John A. Hartford Foundation, his research aims to enable clinicians and health care systems to deliver clinical care and population health management tailored to an individual’s level of frailty.
