Best Physician Assistants in Long Island City, NY

Naomi Friedman™s vision for Sickday Medical House Calls was personalized medical care for New Yorkers and travelers to New York. After spending a decade working in NY hospital settings and a Private Physician Practice, Naomi was dissatisfied with the level of care she was able to provide in these traditional medical environments. With a medical bag in hand, Naomi started visiting patients in their homes. She crisscrossed New York City by foot, bus, and subway to provide personal and attentive treatment for acute and urgent medical conditions. Naomi™s original vision is as true today as it was in 2007 when she founded Sickday. She continues to raise the bar on home-based medical treatments and her belief that all patients deserve quality personalized health care. Sickday™s close-knit team has provided medical care to over 53,000 NYC residents, business executives, and travelers from all around the globe. In the process, they have pioneered the house call field as a viable model for modern healthcare.
