## What this page said

Captured in 2009, the page introduced the Benson-Henry Institute for Mind Body Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital as a world leader in the study and clinical practice of mind/body medicine. It said the institute provided outpatient medical services, training for health professionals, school and workplace programs, and affiliation for health care systems in the United States and abroad, under an oversight committee of the hospital.

It named the leadership of the day, with Gregory L. Fricchione, MD as director and Herbert Benson, MD as director emeritus, gave a Boston headquarters address and a general mailbox, and linked to the longer pages on the institute's mission and history and to a list of clinical staff. Contact details on the original are out of date and are not reproduced here.

## Key points from the original

- Presented the institute as a clinical, teaching and research organisation within Massachusetts General Hospital.
- Listed four areas of service: outpatient care, professional training, school and workplace programs, and affiliate partnerships.
- Pointed to separate pages for mission and history, staff and trustees.
