They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Brooklyn is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

Spanish is one of 3 languages they work in beyond English, alongside Sign language and Creole, which is a wider range than most of New York.
