“Dr. Markouzios is incredible. He saved my daughter from possibly needing to go on a breathing machine in the hospital. He’s been her doctor since she was little. He told us to come to him instead of ER and saw her everyday , treated her with a nebulizer and meds as she could not breathe and had major coughing from a massive lung infection. I am eternally grateful to him - it was the scariest thing and he saved her. God bless you Dr. Markouzios. You have been the most caring and brilliant doctor to my child all these years.“

“My 12-year-old daughter has been with Children's Medical Group Bayside since she was born, and we've been very happy with the care she has received. Every doctor at Children's Medical Group Bayside is friendly and caring, and we have never felt that we were rushed. They always listened to any concerns I had about my daughter carefully and made good recommendations. The clinic has always been clean whenever we visited.“

“My experience during all three of my visits to this Urgent Care office were very positive and helpful. I needed PCR tests each time, because I have specialists who require it.The test was administered by a medical technician each time, including today. They are very courteous, and gentle administering the test.They are also very ADA-compliant (Americans with Disabilities Act) and I didn't have trouble moving around with my walker; also, the medical assistant kindly held doors open for me.On my second visit to the clinic (about two weeks ago), I was given the results of the PCR test on the first visit (negative result), but needed a new test for another doctor visit (it has to be within the previous 72 hours). The result of this second test turned out to be positive, and much to their credit, they didn't wait for me to come back for my results, but called me to let me know I was positive for Covid-19. The timing was amazing, because it was just before I left for the first of the two doctor visits, and I was able to cancel before I went and exposed anyone there to the virus. I must have been exposed between the first and second PCR test. I'm doing fine now, as my symptoms were very mild and six days later, I tested myself with a home (rapid) test and got a negative result.I was also able to call the clinic back, and speak to a doctor about my results after the positive test result. My only criticism is that I was not able to send my husband there for a PCR test, because they require an ID, and my husband (whose IDs got lost) is in the process of applying for new ones. He still has his insurance card and other documents, but he would have needed a current state or city ID to be treated there.Overall, I am really happy that ModernMD Urgent Care is located close to my home. I would feel comfortable going there for any medical problem that could arise for me, which doesn't require a specialist.Anyone who goes there should be aware that they have a special lock on the door, which requires visitors to ring a bell and be buzzed in. The first time I went, I thought the clinic was closed, but it wasn't. As long as you come within the hours it's open (look it up on the internet), follow the instructions and someone will let you in.12/13/23I recently returned with a problem I was experiencing with my toe. The nurse practitioner who treated me prescribed an antibiotic, to prevent further possible infection, until I had a chance to visit my podiatrist. She wisely didn't do any surgical intervention, recognizing that a specialist was required.Everyone there was very courteous and professional. They're an excellent facility.“
