HEALTH

We have compiled these resources from personal clients and internet research. When searching for a specialist such as a cosmetic surgeon, you should use our resources to "comparison shop", but it is ALWAYS WISER in these situations to use word-of-mouth, and the experience of friends and/or family members who have actually received plastic surgery from these doctors. Of course, they should look great!

The New York City Health and Hospital Corporation (HHC) offers low- to no-cost health care provided by New York City hospitals and clinics. This is a great program for the uninsured and includes everything from doctors visits to surgery and hospital stays. Due to the popularity of this program be prepared to have long waits for appointments (you must schedule appointments weeks to months in advance) and long waits at those visits - sometimes up to 6 hours.
