40% Poverty, Zero Dermatologists

Claremont Village has a poverty rate of 40.5% and virtually no dermatologists who accept Medicaid within its borders. Obesity affects more than one in three adults, and hypertension runs 30% above the citywide average. The combination fuels cardiovascular disease at rates that are preventable with consistent care.

Moses Medical is four stops south on the 2 or 5 from 174th St. You can book a visit for primary care, skin concerns, heart-related concerns, lab needs, and follow-up planning. Bring your insurance card if you have one so the team can help review coverage requirements when possible.

For Claremont Village residents who have been putting off a dermatology visit or a blood pressure check because they could not find a provider nearby who would see them on their plan, Moses Medical is accepting new patients now. Bring your card, and the front desk checks your plan before the visit.
