Laurelton
A neighborhood doctor for Laurelton
Laurelton is one of southeast Queens’ classic homeowner neighborhoods — a tree-lined, tight-knit community along Merrick Boulevard and 225th Street, with deep Caribbean-American and African-American roots and generations of families who’ve stayed put. What it has been missing is a real, independent primary-care doctor who’s part of the community and easy to get to.
That doctor is minutes away. At Dr. Bryant Medical Practice and MedSpa on Hollis Avenue — a short drive north up Merrick Boulevard — Dr. Keisha Bryant personally handles your annual physical, your chronic conditions, your sick visits, and your lab reviews. Most new patients are seen the same week, walk-ins are welcome Monday through Saturday, and most follow-ups can be done by telehealth.
Diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol run high across southeast Queens, and they hit the Caribbean-American community especially hard. Having one board-certified MD nearby — who tracks your numbers, adjusts your medications, and knows your family history — is the kind of continuity that actually changes outcomes over the years.
What primary care looks like with Dr. Bryant
Annual physicals & wellness exams
A real, unhurried physical: full history, labs, vitals, cardiovascular & metabolic risk screening, age-appropriate cancer screening referrals, vaccine review. You leave with a written plan you actually understand.
Chronic disease management
Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, thyroid disease, asthma, and pre-diabetes — tracked closely with regular check-ins, lab reviews, and medication adjustments by one MD who follows your numbers over time.
Same-day & sick visits
Sinus infections, UTIs, sore throat, stomach bugs, minor injuries, prescription refills. Skip the urgent-care chain — call your doctor first.
Telehealth follow-ups
After your first in-person visit, most follow-ups can be a quick video call — built for working patients who don't want to lose a day to a 10-minute med review.
