Montefiore Medical Center said that the planned fall relocation of its Grand Concourse practice to Fordham Plaza — and a supplemental move of its family and social medicine providers from Fordham Plaza to a much smaller Williamsbridge location — is due to aging infrastructure and difficulties with the 2532 Grand Concourse landlord, which houses the primary care facility.
While Montefiore does not anticipate an interruption in services or loss of jobs due to the Grand Concourse practice’s relocation, residents and providers in the area told the Bronx Times they felt blindsided by the news, which made the rounds this summer.
