There’s a certain pride in living in a classic Brooklyn walk-up, but that pride quickly fades when you’re sick. The thought of navigating multiple flights of stairs with a fever or a sprained ankle, only to face a packed G train and a long wait at an urgent care clinic, is enough to make anyone want to stay put.
In a borough known for its distinct neighborhoods and vibrant culture, from the brownstones of Park Slope to the lofts of Bushwick, your healthcare should be just as accessible and unique as your address. When you’re feeling unwell, the last thing you should have to worry about is the journey to get care.
The Brooklyn Commute: A Sick Day’s Worst Enemy
Seeking medical attention in Brooklyn often means confronting a series of obstacles:
- The Stairs: For many, the first challenge is simply getting out the front door of their building.
- The Transit: Whether it’s waiting for a bus, navigating a crowded subway station, or paying for a rideshare in traffic, getting around when you’re sick is a significant hassle.
- The Wait: Walk-in clinics are a valuable resource, but they often come with long wait times in rooms filled with other sick people, which is neither comfortable nor ideal for recovery.
