For Parkchester Seniors and Families

Parkchester has a large senior population that needs consistent blood pressure monitoring, diabetes management, and skin care. The neighborhood’s income levels are higher than some surrounding areas, but Medicaid and Medicare patients still face long waits for specialist appointments.

Moses Medical is 18 minutes west by the Bx4 bus, which runs the length of Westchester Ave. Medicare and Medicaid plans, including MetroPlus and Fidelis Care, are listed on our insurance page. Bring your card when you come in. Our primary care and internal medicine team manages blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes over time, and skin visits are for rashes, acne, eczema, and skin changes. Our on-site lab means bloodwork happens during your appointment.

For Parkchester families helping aging parents manage blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes, Moses Medical can help with visit planning, lab work, and follow-up. Call the office if you are trying to decide where to start.
