Healing our Community through Music

Nicholas E. Tawa, Jr., M.D., Ph.D., viola


Dr. Tawa is a surgeon at Beth Israel Deacness Medical Center who specializes in the  management of melanoma, breast cancer, sarcoma, and gastrointestinal malignancies, while also performing basic research seeking to understand why muscle wasting occurs in disease states such as the cachexia of cancer. Dr. Tawa has been a violist in LSO for 8 years and served on the Board of Trustees from 2004-2009. He finds his experiences with LSO to be uplifting, as an alternative to the emotional rigors of the clinic and as a way to share the spiritual values inherent in good music.
