This is what the new Gotham Health Roosevelt clinic, located in Jackson Heights, looks like with the mission of treating patients suffering from the consequences of coronavirus.

“Here we have primary care for the whole family and for patients who have long-term effects of COVID-19,” explained Dr. Atif Muhammad.

The clinic, the COVID19 Center of Excellence in Gotham Heatlh Roosevelt, is located in one of the neighborhoods most affected by coronavirus.

37 percent of Queens residents tested positive for coronavirus in the Jackson Heights area.

This clinic, located on 72nd Street and Roosevelt Boulevard, will welcome patients who have overcome the disease but now need follow-up in medical care.

It is the only clinic in Queens that has the space and tools to receive patients with lung, radiological and even mental health effects.

“There are many people who are very tired after COVID, every day. He has mental problems, “added Dr. Muhammad.

In addition, patients who come to this center will be able to receive cheap or free medical care, regardless of their immigration status. This is determined by the income of each family.

“There are many people who do not know that there is a place to go when they have these symptoms after COVID or for primary care,” said the doctor.

It is a medical center that has 20 examination rooms and specialists for each member of the family.

Specialized services include cancer diagnosis, gynecology, vision and dental care, diabetes management, podiatry and radiology.

Each room has the latest technological tools for patient care.

“Patients were very excited not only by our amazing providers, but also by introducing a new and appropriate place for each patient,” said Dr. Justin List, also from Gotham Health Roosevelt.
