Concierge Medical and Psychiatric Care for Complex Care Needs in Older Adults in Manhattan

Metro Medical Direct is a private house-call and telehealth service for older adults with multiple medical and psychiatric conditions. I work directly with families, assisted living staff, specialists, and professional advisors to reduce preventable crises, avoid unnecessary emergency room visits, and help your parent remain as stable and comfortable as possible at home.

For families, geriatric care managers, assisted living teams, and elder law attorneys managing complex cases in Manhattan.

What Metro Medical Direct Provides

Comprehensive Medical Care

As a board-certified Adult Health and Family Nurse Practitioner, I provide comprehensive primary care tailored to medically complex older adults. This includes in-depth assessments, careful medication reconciliation and deprescribing, chronic disease management, and anticipatory planning aimed at reducing preventable hospitalizations and complications.

Psychiatric & Behavioral Care

As a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, I address depression, anxiety, insomnia, agitation, behavioral disturbances related to dementia, and complex psychopharmacology. The focus is improving the elder's quality of life while reducing distress for families and caregivers.

Decision Support & Coordination

I communicate directly with cardiology, neurology, psychiatry, home care, hospital teams, care managers, and assisted living staff. I then synthesize the information into clear, practical recommendations so families and professional partners can make informed, confident decisions.

Outcomes That Matter to Families and Professionals

Families, care managers, and attorneys engage Metro Medical Direct because they want fewer surprises and a more stable, predictable course.

Fewer emergency room visits and hospital admissions driven by preventable issues.

One clinician who understands the full medical and psychiatric story.

Clear, direct communication so adult children understand what is happening and what to expect.

Proactive planning around medications, fall risk, cognitive decline, and behavioral symptoms—rather than reactive crisis management.

Alignment between family wishes, facility capabilities, and the elder's clinical reality.

If You're Getting Too Many Crisis Calls, It May Be Time for a Different Approach

If your parent or client is cycling between assisted living, the emergency room, and multiple specialists—and you feel as though you are the only one holding the story together—it may be time for structured guidance. Metro Medical Direct is a limited-panel, high-touch service for families and professionals who want one clinician responsible for the full medical and psychiatric picture in Manhattan.

Not for emergencies. If you believe your parent is in immediate danger, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
