For Parkchester Seniors and Families

Parkchester has a large senior population that needs consistent cardiovascular monitoring, diabetes management, and dermatology 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 Bx6 SBS bus. We accept both Medicare (including Advantage plans from Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, and Empire BCBS) and all Medicaid managed care plans. Our cardiology team sees patients the same week they call. Our dermatologist accepts Medicaid. Our on-site lab means bloodwork happens during your appointment.

For Parkchester families helping aging parents manage blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes, Moses Medical puts the specialists under one roof. Lab results come back faster. Referrals stay inside the practice. And appointments are available within days, not months.
