Lynn C. Schulman

I'm going to bring up, I brought it up at the, it was brought up at the preliminary budget hearing, but the Crown Heights Clinic, is there still no plans to do anything there?

Lynn C. Schulman

We're getting a lot of incoming calls from people that live in that district and others, so it's...

Dr. Alistair Martin

Yeah, this is a top priority for us to get that clinic back online at the moment.

Dr. Alistair Martin

It's really a question of funding and staff, but this is certainly something that we are, we hear, we hear you, Chair, we hear Council, and we hear the community as well, and we're trying to meet that, bless you, that need.

Dr. Alistair Martin

Right down the street, the Fort Greene Clinic is open, and so we hope to be able to say that

Dr. Alistair Martin

Both those clinics will be operational soon.

Lynn C. Schulman

Just keeping it in the loop, keeping it current.
