Primary Care in Elmhurst, Queens

Our primary care Elmhurst office is a short walk from the busy Roosevelt Avenue and Broadway subway hub, which makes it practical for people living in Elmhurst itself as well as Jackson Heights, Corona and Sunnyside. Most visits here cover everyday medicine: yearly physicals, new symptoms, medication refills, forms for work or school, and referrals when a specialist is needed. We try to keep you with the same provider so you are not retelling your story each time. For a broader look at what primary care includes, read our primary care services in Queens overview; the details below are specific to 75th Street.

Common reasons Queens residents book with us include:

• Colds, flu, sinus infections and sore throats
• High blood pressure, type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol
• Asthma flare-ups and seasonal allergies
• Back pain, minor sprains and muscle strains
• Rashes, minor skin infections and urinary tract infections
• Trouble sleeping, stress and low mood, with referral when more support is needed

Anything urgent but not life-threatening, such as a painful ear or a fever that will not break, can often be handled the same day in Elmhurst. For emergencies, call 911. This is only a sample; the complete range, plus how acute and ongoing visits differ, is laid out on our main primary care page.

Each provider shown here sees patients at the 75th Street clinic, so the person who meets you on your first visit can follow you over time.

The closest subway stop is 74 St–Broadway / Jackson Heights–Roosevelt Av, served by the 7, E, F, M and R trains; from there the clinic is a few minutes on foot. The Elmhurst Av station on the M and R lines is also nearby. Riders coming from Sunnyside can take the 7 straight to 74 St in about ten minutes.

If you have been searching for a Medicaid doctor in Elmhurst, we accept most major insurance plans, including Medicaid and Medicare, and it is worth a quick call to confirm your specific plan before the first visit. Many Medicaid managed care members have a primary care provider printed on their card; if you want that to be City Prime Care, your plan can usually update it by phone, and our front desk can walk you through the steps in English or Spanish. Preventive visits such as a yearly physical are often covered in full, while sick visits may carry a copay depending on your plan. See our insurance information for more.

If your office is downtown, you can also book primary care at our Chinatown clinic on Catherine Street with the same practice.
