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. We accept Medicare, including Advantage plans from Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, and Empire BCBS, along with Medicaid managed care plans such as MetroPlus, Fidelis, Amerigroup, and WellCare. Our primary care and internal medicine team manages blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes over time, and the same team sees dermatology visits for rashes, acne, 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, referral questions, and follow-up. Call the office if you are trying to decide where to start.
