Claremont Village Deserves Better Healthcare
Cardiology, weight loss, and dermatology with Medicaid. 10 minutes by bus.. Moses Medical is 10 min by bus, 6 min drive from Claremont Village.
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 about 10 minutes south by the Bx36 bus. You can book a visit for primary care, common skin concerns, weight management questions, heart-related concerns, lab needs, and follow-up planning. Bring your insurance card if you have one so the team can help review coverage and referral requirements when possible.
For Claremont Village residents who have been putting off a dermatology appointment, a cardiology referral, or a weight management consultation because no nearby provider accepts their plan, Moses Medical is accepting new patients now.
