About Concierge Medicine in Brooklyn
Brooklyn's concierge market runs on a fundamentally different model than Manhattan's. In Manhattan, you pay a large annual retainer ($5,000 to $10,000+) for a small panel of 50 to 300 patients. In Brooklyn, the dominant model is hybrid: practices accept your insurance for covered services and layer on enhanced access, messaging, and shorter wait times through a smaller membership or no membership at all.
This matters for your wallet. Leaf Medical operates three Brooklyn locations (DUMBO, Carroll Gardens, and a third) where membership is free with an annual visit ($150/year if you skip it). They accept 100+ insurance plans. They are affiliated with Weill Cornell and NewYork-Presbyterian, which means your PCP is in DUMBO but your specialist referrals go to one of the top hospital systems in the world on the Upper East Side. Seven physicians staff the practice. Nothing like this exists in Manhattan.
Prominis Medical takes the hybrid model to scale: 27 doctors across 12+ locations, 35+ insurance plans, covering cardiology, primary care, GI, OB-GYN, and rheumatology. They also operate a home visit department. Baker Health runs two Brooklyn locations (Brighton Beach and Williamsburg) with 13 and 18 physicians respectively, at under $17/month. Arjun Medical / Dr.NYC offers 24/7 house calls and accepts Medicaid and Medicare, extending concierge-level access to patients that Manhattan's cash-only market does not serve.
The concierge market is geographically concentrated in northwest Brooklyn: DUMBO, Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens, and Park Slope. These neighborhoods have median household incomes of $130,000 to $170,000+ and a patient base of finance professionals, tech workers, and creative industry employees who commute to Manhattan. South and east Brooklyn (Flatbush, East New York, Brownsville, Canarsie) have essentially zero concierge presence, reflecting one of the starkest health equity gaps in any US borough.
Most affluent Brooklyn patients do not use Brooklyn hospitals for serious care. They cross the Manhattan Bridge or Brooklyn Bridge to go to Mount Sinai, Weill Cornell/NewYork-Presbyterian, or NYU Langone. The concierge physician's role in Brooklyn is partly to coordinate that Manhattan-based specialist care while providing day-to-day primary care in the borough. This is exactly what Leaf Medical's Weill Cornell affiliation enables. Within Brooklyn, NYU Langone Hospital Brooklyn (Sunset Park), NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist (Park Slope), and Maimonides Medical Center (Borough Park) are the strongest hospitals.
For context on how concierge medicine pricing works across the US, Brooklyn is one of the most affordable borough markets in the NYC metro.

Types of Concierge and DPC Practices in Brooklyn
Hybrid practices are the backbone of Brooklyn's market. Leaf Medical (free membership, 7 physicians, Weill Cornell/NYP), Baker Health (under $17/month, 31 physicians across 2 locations), and Prominis Medical (27 doctors, 12+ locations, 35+ insurance plans) all accept insurance while providing enhanced access. This is Brooklyn's distinctive contribution to concierge medicine.
Concierge with retainers exists at a smaller scale. Kenworthy Medical Care ($1,500-$5,000/year with house calls), Aaron Greenberg MD ($2,100/year, 600-patient cap, cardiology), and Irene Perloff MD ($1,930/year) serve patients who want the traditional retainer model. These are priced well below Manhattan equivalents.
DPC has a small footprint. Anise Medical ($197/month adult, $99/month child) combines DPC with culinary medicine and obesity medicine, a niche no other Brooklyn practice fills.
Specialty practices include Integrated ENT (4 physicians), Brooklyn Integrative Medicine (functional, BHRT, cannabis), and GPM Pediatrics (functional pediatrics).
The insurance question: Understanding the key differences between concierge medicine and DPC matters in Brooklyn because the hybrid model here is neither pure concierge nor pure DPC. It is a Brooklyn-specific innovation that keeps insurance working while adding concierge-level access.
Brooklyn Neighborhoods for Concierge Medicine
DUMBO and Brooklyn Heights are the epicenter. Leaf Medical's DUMBO location is the anchor. Brooklyn Heights (median household income $130,000-$170,000) has the highest concentration of affluent residents close to Manhattan. The walk across the Brooklyn Bridge to NYP/Weill Cornell takes 20 minutes.
Carroll Gardens and Cobble Hill have Leaf Medical's second Brooklyn location and serve the brownstone Brooklyn corridor.
Park Slope and Prospect Heights are the next tier: young affluent families, dual-income professionals, strong pediatric demand. GPM Pediatrics and La Différence Pediatrics serve this market.
Williamsburg (north side) has Baker Health's Williamsburg location and a tech/creative industry demographic.
Brighton Beach has Baker Health's Brighton Beach location, serving the southern Brooklyn and Russian-speaking community.
The gap: South and east Brooklyn (Flatbush, East New York, Brownsville, Canarsie) have essentially zero concierge or DPC presence on NextMD.
How to Choose a Concierge Doctor in Brooklyn
- If you have insurance, start with the hybrid model. Leaf Medical is free with an annual visit and accepts 100+ plans. Baker Health is under $17/month. These give you concierge-level access without dropping your insurance or paying a large retainer. You can always upgrade to a traditional retainer practice later.
- Consider the Manhattan bridge. If you work in Manhattan, you might wonder whether to get a Manhattan concierge doctor. The case for Brooklyn: your doctor is near your home, where health emergencies actually happen. A same-day appointment in DUMBO on a Saturday beats a Midtown practice that is open Monday through Friday. Most Brooklyn concierge physicians coordinate specialist referrals to Manhattan hospitals anyway.
- The Weill Cornell/NYP affiliation matters. Leaf Medical's affiliation means your PCP is in Brooklyn but your specialist network is at one of the top hospital systems in the world. Ask any Brooklyn practice about their hospital affiliations. Research shows why concierge patients visit the ER 40% less often when they have direct access.
- Pediatric concierge is available. GPM Pediatrics (functional pediatrics, 3 physicians) and La Différence Pediatrics (newborn care, lactation support) serve Park Slope and surrounding family neighborhoods. Our guide on how to choose the right concierge or DPC doctor covers evaluation factors.
- Baker Health is at scale. 31 physicians across two Brooklyn locations is a different model than a solo concierge practice. The advantage is coverage (someone is always available). The tradeoff is you may see different doctors. Decide whether you value consistency (one doctor who knows you) or availability (someone is always there).
