NEARBY CARE IN QUEENS
Knee pain support for Fresh Meadows patients
Fresh Meadows sits just east of Forest Hills with tree-lined streets and easy access via Union Turnpike or the Q46 bus. Many neighbors drive the short route to our 76-55 Austin Street office in about ten minutes. We focus on non-surgical care first for knee pain. Dr. Mehran Manouel leads orthopedic evaluation and sports medicine approaches while Dr. Amir Salem offers Genicular Artery Embolization when it fits the situation. This keeps treatment local and avoids unnecessary procedures.
