East Tremont Deserves Better Healthcare
Primary care, internal medicine, dermatology, and heart care. Medicaid plans listed, 10 min by bus. Moses Medical is 10 min by bus, 6 min drive from East Tremont.
Tremont Ave to Westchester Ave
East Tremont residents with hypertension often go years between cardiology visits because the nearest cardiologist accepting Medicaid is a long bus ride away. Obesity and diabetes compound the problem: each condition multiplies the risk from the others, and managing them in isolation does not work.
Moses Medical is five stops south on the 2/5 train from West Farms Square, or a ride south on the Bx17 from Crotona Ave. Our primary care and internal medicine team manages blood pressure and cholesterol over time. Skin concerns are seen through our skin visits for rashes, acne, eczema, and skin changes. Everything sits in the same building as our on-site lab, so bloodwork happens during your visit.
For patients managing blood pressure, diabetes risk, or cholesterol, the visit can connect heart-health questions, lab work, medication review, and follow-up planning.
