Health
Public health is a necessity in a City as large as ours. All of us from infants to seniors should have access to quality health care. We must support our health institutions and provide preventative health care services such as immunizations to lower expensive treatment costs. Cutting vital health care services from our budget has historically only increased treatment costs in the long term. Through proper support and preventative health care services we can make our City a healthier place to live.

On December 26, after 5 days of stomach pain I stopped by the CityMD Urgent Care location on 86th between 1st and 2nd Avenue on the way to work. Ten minutes later I had been examined by a Doctor and sent to the Lenox Hill Hospital Emergency Room with a likely appendicitus. Lenox Hill Hospital provided me with top quality care. I had an appendectomy that day and have made a full recovery.

This summer I joined more than 400+ swimmers for the annual 1K Brooklyn Bridge Swim across the East River. I invite you to join me next year for the swim and join the sponsor NYC Swim in taking back our rivers for a City that will one day have more accessible and sustainable waterways. You can click here to watch last year’s swim on YouTube.
