Primary care and internal medicine for Fordham patients, at our Bronx office.

Fordham sits in the heart of the Bronx near Fordham University and the bustling commercial strips along Fordham Road. Many residents juggle work, family, and studies while managing everyday health needs. The M&S office on East Tremont Avenue gives local adults a steady place for checkups without traveling far across borough lines.

Dr. Habib Monas leads the practice and focuses on internal medicine and primary care.
