Front Street Medical Hempstead

A medical center on Front Street

Front Street Medical's Hempstead office is at 475 Front Street. It lists primary care, chiropractic, physical therapy, neurology and orthopedic services. Chiropractor Drew DeMarco appears in an insurer's directory at this location, while the center also presents physician Ehab Hassanain for primary care. These are different professional services, even when offered under one roof.

Care after an injury

The center describes medical evaluations, pain management and therapy for people with injuries, including accidents. Patients may need a medical assessment, rehabilitation, or a combination depending on the injury; a treatment plan should explain the role of each professional. The office says it accepts Medicare and many other plans, but a patient's benefits and any preauthorization depend on the policy.

One recent account describes DeMarco declining an adjustment for a patient with a previous spinal fusion; another describes a positive physical-therapy experience. A different recent caller reported difficulty receiving assistance by telephone. These are individual accounts about different services, not a guarantee of an outcome.
