Ribbon Cutting for Chamber Member Concierge Pediatrics

The Greater Roslyn Chamber of Commerce was delighted to perform a ribbon cutting for new business and new member Concierge Pediatrics, located at 1520 Old Northern Boulevard in Roslyn, located in the same shopping center as Mexican restaurant Besito. 

The beautiful, clean facility has kid-friendly murals in the exam rooms, to give the office a fun atmosphere.  Dr. Jonathan Jassey and Dr. Sharon Somekh are Board-Certified Pediatricians who welcome families looking for more out of their pediatrician.  Concierge Pediatrics offers same-day appointments and longer exam times.  One of the many perks is an app that allows families to, for example, look inside the child’s ear so that the pediatrician can determine if the child has an ear infection without having to come into the office.

Roslyn Chamber board members in attendance were Mimi Howard, president; Barbara Kaplan, VP of Marketing and Public Relations; Kate Lumetta, Alicia Brown, Graciela Hall, and Howie Mann.  Elected officials who joined us and provided citations were Town of North Hempstead Supervisor Jennifer DeSena, Assemblymember Gina Sillitti, and Nassau County Legislator Delia DeRiggi-Whitton.

The office phone number is (516) 514-7337.
