CityMD, the leading urgent care provider in the New York metropolitan area, today announced the opening of a new site located at 812 Wheeler Road in the Hauppauge neighborhood of Suffolk County. The latest CityMD marks the 33rd location in Long Island and 143rd CityMD in total.
“CityMD has been committed to serving Long Island communities since we opened our first Lake Grove location in February 2011. Since then, we have expanded to 33 locations across Nassau and Suffolk counties,” said Vincent Campasano, MD, Chief Operating Officer, NY Region. “By providing high-quality urgent care to patients at the moment they need it, we are also establishing the gateway to an integrated network of primary and specialty care that so many of our patients are seeking. As part of Summit Health, we’re paving the way to a comprehensive health care model that seamlessly provides primary, multispecialty and urgent care for Long Island residents.”
Patients of all ages visit CityMD for many reasons, including treatment for upper respiratory infections, colds and flu, asthma, allergies, minor lacerations, sore throats, insect bites and rashes, among other conditions. On-site doctors can diagnose and treat pink eye, croup, minor orthopedic injuries, and nosebleeds. Rapid testing for flu, strep throat, mononucleosis, UTIs and other conditions are also among available services.
With urgent care locations throughout New York and New Jersey, CityMD continues to offer three forms of COVID-19 testing at all locations – Rapid, PCR and Antibody Testing. For more information regarding these COVID-19 tests offered at CityMD, please visit the online COVID-19 testing FAQ. The Hauppauge location also offers a Virtual Line for patients in need of COVID-19 testing. This new process aims to provide a more convenient experience by eliminating the need to wait in a physical line outside of CityMD locations.
CityMD will support the emergency medical needs of families in Hauppauge and nearby communities with convenient weekday and weekend hours, as well as self-check-in kiosks. The new location also has on-site state-of-the-art technology, which include X-ray and EKG machinery. The latest CityMD urgent care center provides coordinated care through CityMD’s unique, centralized Aftercare Department. This expert team of doctors and clinical assistants helps patients coordinate their follow-up care, ranging from referrals to pre-approvals and other appointments. After visits, patients can also send bill payments, view their statements, update their information, and even submit questions through CityMD’s secure online portal.
