The Story
Throughout the past few years of the Covid-19 pandemic, we’ve had to make a lot of changes in order to return to some sense of normalcy in our everyday lives. Individuals who have struggled with their mental health and traumas in their personal lives have had an especially hard time transitioning into a time of virtual work, socially distant gatherings, and overall lack of social interaction.
The mental health sector of healthcare has also had to jump through multiple hurdles to provide their patients with the highest level of care while navigating the safety measures put in place for the pandemic.
​
Dr. Lucy Osorio is a psychotherapist who specializes in helping individuals dealing with trauma, especially kids. When the Covid-19 pandemic initially stunted her ability to help her patients, she dedicated her energy into continuing to provide her services to her patients by any means necessary.
Sunrise Medical PC is made up of a group of health care professionals, like Dr. Osorio, who are dedicated to providing the highest level of care for their patients, but most importantly they make sure to treat them with the highest standard of compassion and respect. Their staff is fully made up of bilingual individuals, as the practice was created with the intention of helping the Spanish and Latino population who have had to navigate the healthcare industry in America.
​
“At Sunrise Medical we pride ourselves in our ability to help the Hispanic and Latino communities throughout Queens. Our staff is fully bilingual, and about 75% of the patients we see are of Spanish or Latin descent, but the basis of our practice has always been to deliver the highest quality of care to anyone who needs it, especially those who felt like they have been overlooked by their doctors,” explained Dr. Osorio.
