We are proud to offer our clients exceptional customer service and our patients best-in-class care including wellness and sick exams, vaccinations, diagnostic testing, routine and advanced surgical procedures, dentistry, laser therapy, behavior counseling, daytime emergency or urgent care, and more.

Our hospital is located in Brooklyn, NY. Our proximity to Manhattan makes for easy access to the incredible things that the big city has to offer, but still provides shelter and a more laid-back life in one of the outer boroughs. Popular activities in the area include the many local restaurants and bars, as well as being right next to Prospect Park which is an amazing public resource. There are countless local museums, entertainment options, and sporting events. The neighborhood has many different housing options - from apartments to Victorian mansions (yes, in NYC!). It is a great place to enjoy a healthy and active work-life balance.
