Family Chiropractors, P.C.

Two named chiropractors at one Suite 1A address

Family Chiropractors occupies Suite 1A at 21-20 33rd Road in Astoria, within walking distance of the N train according to its directions. Andrew Matassa and Louis Macolino both graduated from New York Chiropractic College in 1994. Matassa has owned the practice since 1996. Macolino is also identified as an owner. Both clinicians work from the Suite 1A office.

Their biographies describe subsequent study in radiological analysis and meridian therapy. Matassa lists training concerning lower-back, pelvic and lower-extremity problems, mobilization and myofascial release; Macolino lists study in radiology, pediatrics and sacral-occipital technique.

A longer first assessment and direct doctor contact

The practice describes a first visit lasting approximately 30–45 minutes and says hands-on care is provided by the doctor rather than an assistant. Computer-assisted range-of-motion testing and thermal imaging are advertised as assessment tools. The 30–45 minute allowance is useful to someone arranging time away from work: it describes an initial assessment rather than a brief follow-up slot.

The schedule needs a careful reading

The detailed office-hours page lists four regular days:

• Monday and Friday:9 am–1 pm and 3–7 pm.
• Tuesday and Thursday:9 am–2 pm and 3–7 pm.
• Sunday: closed. Wednesday and Saturday entries are struck out and labeled not open because of Covid.

Another marketing page still calls the practice open six days a week. Because these official pages disagree, Saturday or Wednesday cannot be offered to readers as dependable opening days. The contact number for the Suite 1A office is 718-726-0328. The published material advertises acceptance of most insurance plans and an option to arrange payments, but supplies neither named current plans nor a complete fee schedule. The office’s insurance arrangements therefore need to be matched to the patient’s own plan before the visit.

The practice therefore stands out for a two-doctor neighborhood model, a stated 30–45 minute assessment and evening sessions on four listed weekdays. A recent patient account emphasizes a warm, accommodating manner and a clean, comfortable office. Other comments describe professional and friendly interactions with the doctors and reception.
