Lelio ‘Les’ Marino was the visionary, founder and generous benefactor of what was then known as the Marino Foundation for Integrative Medicine, the sponsor of The Marino Centers for Progressive Health. Because of his vision and generosity, the Center has grown into one of the region’s premier providers of integrative medicine and healthcare services.

Our origins date back to 1993 when Mr. Marino acquired a small alternative medical practice in Cambridge, MA. From this humble beginning, he envisioned a model of care that would integrate mind, body, and spirit, and genuinely blend traditional and complementary healing practices. In 2008, we “integrated” our two names and became the Marino Center for Integrative Health. Throughout the years, the Marino Center has been guided by Mr. Marino’s vision and its mission of providing patient care, education, and research – and continues to be today.
