As part of its mission to enhance access to quality healthcare where people live and work, ٺƵ Health continues to grow its outpatient network in Suffolk County on Long Island with new locations and specialty services.
“Our new locations ensure patients have convenient access to care as we continue to grow our services throughout Suffolk County, including on the East End,” says Andrew Rubin, senior vice president for clinical affairs and ambulatory care at ٺƵ. “Building on this momentum, we’re also recruiting more primary and specialty care providers to add to our sites so we can care for even more patients in the community.”
New Locations for Wellness and Preventive Care
ٺƵ recently welcomed five locations from MyHealth Long Island, offering wellness services and preventive care. The providers specialize in primary care, family medicine, rheumatology, and colorectal surgery.
“Our transition to ٺƵ has been great for both providers and patients,” says Keriake Semertzides, DO, clinical assistant professor of medicine at NYU Long Island School of Medicine. “The information available in Epic, ٺƵ’s electronic health record, provides a more complete picture of who my patients are and their needs, and has also enhanced health screening management, which enables physicians to provide the highest-quality care.”
Patients can make appointments at our newest Suffolk County locations:
- ٺƵ Medical Associates—Bellport
- ٺƵ Medical Associates—Oakdale
- ٺƵ Medical Associates—Patchogue, 100 Hospital Road
- ٺƵ Medical Associates—Patchogue, New Village
- ٺƵ Colorectal Surgery Associates—Patchogue
Expanding World-Class Gastroenterology Care
Expanding its gastroenterology network on Long Island, ٺƵ recently welcomed Steve Georgopoulos, MD, clinical assistant professor of medicine at NYU Long Island School of Medicine, who sees patients at ٺƵ Medical Associates—Riverhead and ٺƵ Medical Associates—Bridgehampton. Dr. Georgopoulos treats gastrointestinal conditions, including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and diverticular disease, and performs endoscopies and colonoscopies at ٺƵ Medical Associates—Riverhead. Before joining ٺƵ, Dr. Georgopoulos was the chief of gastrointestinal endoscopy at Stony Brook Southampton Hospital.
ٺƵ also added gastroenterology services at ٺƵ Medical Associates—Patchogue, 100 Hospital Road, welcoming Chris E. Lascarides, MD, clinical associate professor of medicine at NYU Long Island School of Medicine and clinical director for ambulatory gastroenterology in Suffolk County. Dr. Lascarides, who completed his entire education and training at NYU, including undergraduate studies, medical school, internship, residency, and fellowship training, returns to ٺƵ as a gastroenterologist with 20 years of experience. Dr. Lascarides treats general gastrointestinal conditions and performs endoscopies, colonoscopies, and capsule endoscopies.
New Pulmonology Location in Patchogue
The multilingual care team at ٺƵ Pulmonary Associates—East Patchogue, formerly Suffolk Chest Physicians, offers comprehensive diagnostic testing and care for pulmonary conditions. In addition to routine care, they also provide specialized treatment for lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and emphysema, as well as sleep medicine and critical care medicine services.
“We welcome all of our new locations and providers to our world-class medical team and look forward to more growth to come,” says Rubin.
