Benjamin Green, M.D.

Benjamin Green, M.D.Dr. Green, M.D. was born and raised in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, and studied anthropology at Harvard University. After Harvard, Dr. Green studied family medicine at the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, and began his residency with the University of Pennsylvania Family Medicine Residency Program. Dr. Green met his wife, Aurelie, while at the university. Her desire to start her residency in family medicine in Seattle led the two of them to the Pacific Northwest.

Dr. Green has a strong interest in sports medicine and adolescent health. While at the University of Pennsylvania, he spent time working with local high school and college athletes and also participated actively in the Keystone State Games as a member of the medical staff. In addition, Dr. Green valued his time spent with adolescents and saw the potential for educating and guiding young patients on future health and life issues.

Spending time with his patients is important to Dr. Green. He believes that effective care is best achieved when a true doctor-patient relationship can be forged. The Carena model of care focuses on sufficient and appropriate allocation of time with patients, which is often lacking in current practice models. He is excited to be a part of the Carena team and looks forward to meeting and interacting with his patients in a "less-hurried environment".

In his spare time, Dr. Green enjoys all athletic endeavors and participates actively in basketball, golf, and fishing. He and his wife also enjoy hiking, biking, and cooking.

    I was at home caring for my infant son when I cut my hand while washing dishes. The Carena doctor was excellent, suturing my hand and saving me a trip to the ER with a crying baby.

    My 3-year-old son was seen by Carena because I was too sick to take him to an urgent care facility. His PCP and her colleagues were also fully booked that day. The Carena doctor was extremely knowledgeable and he took his time explaining everything to us. This service is absolutely great! It was better than I ever expected.

    I appreciated the house call because it was difficult for me to move due to my back pain. The Carena doctor was kind and easy to communicate with. His advice helped to ease fears of serious injury. My pain was severe, but medication helped ease my pain so that I could move around a bit easier.

    My toddler had a significant fever for four days and we were snowed in. The house call made such a difference. My son is responding to the prescription and is eating and drinking again. The Carena doctor was great and even walked three blocks in the snow to reach us. Thanks!

    I can’t stop raving about Carena’s house call! In addition to diagnosing my pneumonia and writing a prescription for medication, the Carena doctor also evaluated a potentially cancerous growth on my face and gave me advice on next steps.

    Our 2-year-old daughter fell and split her chin open on Saturday when our doctor’s office was closed. I wasn't sure if it would need stitches or not. The Carena doctor was great, and we really appreciated having care in the home!

    This was such a helpful service! I just relocated two days ago and had not identified a PCP yet. It was great to get the health attention when I knew nobody else was around. Thank you!

    I could not wait a week to see my doctor. That was the next open appointment. This service prevented an unnecessary and costly trip to the ER but also prevented me from getting worse while waiting to see my doctor.

    Carena is invaluable. Our 16-month-old son dislocated his elbow and the Carena doctor was able to manipulate the bone back into place. Had he not been able to make this house call we would have had to have taken the baby to the ER. The physician was amazing, kind, and capable. We are so grateful for this service—and impressed by the skill of the physician. Thanks!

    This is a great service! I truly appreciated the doctor coming to my house as I had a fever and horrible cough. I was sick and contagious and didn't feel like going anywhere, especially an ER that would have had a long wait time.

    One of the best doctors I have come across during my seven years in the US. The doctor did a detailed diagnosis, answered all questions and concerns, educated us about the problem, examined and performed tests meticulously, and made me feel comfortable. My husband was very happy, too. Amazing doctor. Five stars.

    This is what medical care should be.

    This doctor probably saved my son's life. He diagnosed a tricky case of appendicitis; otherwise I would not have taken my son to the hospital until the next day.
