Is there a Doctor/ clinic in Brooklyn open Sunday/today

My Dr in Manhattan will be available on Tues only. My sore throat of Friday has worsened and I fear I may need a strep test/ antibiotic. So far my remedies of ibuprofen, lemons, garlic, cognac, apple cider vinegar carrot juice and other tricks are not working (not all at once of course) !

Can any recommend a Dr that would be open today Sunday and able to do a quick throat swab test and prescribe mediation if need.

Ideally in Park Slope Prospect Heights Cobble Hill B. Hill Brooklyn Heights area....

Dr. Steven Simons/Dr. Tarek Hagazi. They're out on Avenue M just off Ocean Parkway, but they are (a) GREAT (b) open Sundays. 718-339-5749.

There a walk in clinic that was located 200 Clinton St but they moved a few blocks away, still in that general area though, I think this is there number: (718) 797-5100

Someone on an older thread mentioned http://www.interfaithmedical.com/

Strep sucks. Halls sugar-free cough drops are my go to soother. I get strep a few times a year and have learned how to sleep with one of these tucked between my tongue and roof of my mouth to deal with the "feels like I swallowed broken glass" feeling.

At this point, by the time antibiotics would make a difference in symptoms, I'm pretty sure the pain portion would be over so why take antibiotics (which are best avoided unless absolutely necessary, imo)? I only took the ab's once, and that was at the insistence of coworkers in a tight space and I didn't get relief any sooner than usual, but was probably not contagious for as long as usual.

if you can't find anyone in the neighborhood, selected duane reade stores in manhattan have a walk-in clinic that's open sundays http://www.drwalkin.com/ -- not all of them are open sundays, so I'd call ahead. They take insurance or $.

unless you're worried about the exceptionally rare complication of rheumatic fever, strep will go away on its own in 3-5 days. antibiotics can knock out a day or two. since you're already at that mark, better to take motrin and rest.

('m not a doctor, btw, but you can google it)

Also, try black elderberry syrup until you can get meds, its been proven to have anti-viral and anti-bacterial results. You can get it at many drugstores around park slope.

I know there is a medical office open 7 days a week at 196a flatbush ave between Bergen and Dean. Tel number 718 789 5900. You might try them and see if they can accomodate you in the future. I think they are called sunrise medical group or something.
