The new Rocky Point location will be their 24th for Allied on Long Island, bringing the total number of offices in the NY metropolitan area to 34. Supervisor Romaine said, “Allied Physicians Group’s new pediatric practice here in Rocky Point is an important new medical practice in our community. We have a growing number of families with young children in the area and as is the case with children, they need regular checkups as well as medical care. This new office will be convenient for families living here in Rocky Point and the surrounding area.”
