New Patient? No Sweat!
Registration Reformation: Before you can snag that coveted appointment, you gotta become part of the Mass. Eye and Ear fam. Don't worry, it's easier than parallel parking (unless you're a pro, then kudos!). Just call their scheduling superheroes during business hours (Monday-Friday, 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM ET) at 617-573-3202 for Ophthalmology (eyes) or 617-573-3954 for Otolaryngology (ears, nose, and throat).
Pro Tip: If you know which body part is acting up (or down, sideways, you get the idea), call the specific department. Saves everyone time, especially you because that extra hour can be spent perfecting your "dramatic eye strain" look for your appointment.
QuickTip: Scan quickly, then go deeper where needed.

Call them at the same numbers listed above for new patients.
