My name is Greg Schwartz and I am running to be your next State Representative from the 12th Middlesex district.
The 12th Middlesex district includes Newton’s Ward 5, Ward 6, Ward 7 Precinct 1, and Ward 8; and within the Town of Brookline, Precincts 5, 13A, 14, and 15.
If elected, I will be the only medical doctor in the entire Massachusetts State Legislature. That matters because our state legislature plays a significant role in regulating all aspects of healthcare, from cost to access to quality. Every day, I see the limitations of our system: people not being able to access a primary care doctor or specialist, patients left waiting in the ER for care, people putting off care due to being uninsured or underinsured, just to name a few.
So many state-level issues are related to our health, including climate change, transportation, education, and affordable housing. My background as a healthcare provider will allow me to have a people-focused approach to these issues.
As a primary care physician, my job is to lead with empathy and compassion while analyzing a problem and formulating a solution in order to help my patients be happier and healthier. That is the perspective I will bring to the state legislature.
Please reach out with any questions or comments, I look forward to hearing from you, and meeting you as I knock on every door in the district over the next few months!
A VOICE FOR ALL
