24-Hour Clinics: Around the Clock Care in NYC

Guest: John Chuey, MD
Host: Larry Kaskel, MD

In the city that never sleeps, there's a new physician-staffed medical clinic that, well, doesn't sleep either. We all have a few night owls, night-shifters or insomniacs in our practice; we also have patients who may be bothered by pain or illness in the middle of the night, but will avoid a visit to the emergency at all costs. In New York City, at least, these patients have another option for late-night care. For more on this interesting new option for patient care, host Dr. Larry Kaskel welcomes Dr. John Chuey, senior physician at the 23rd Street Office of the Beth Israel Medical Group in New York City, a 24-hour medical clinic staffed round-the-clock by physicians.
