New York City Council Speaker Christine Quinn
We have to address the lack of access to primary care...There are too many neighborhoods, especially in low-income and isolated areas, where you can’t find a primary care doctor or a full service clinic anywhere...To change that, and help expand access to primary care, I am proposing that we create 10 state of the art healthcare facilities in high-need communities over the next five years...They will help ensure that more New Yorkers have access to the kind of first-rate preventive health care that so many of us take for granted.
