The University at Buffalo’s department of family medicine recently held a grand opening for a private medical center it opened on the city’s East Side.
The Jefferson Family Medicine Center, located in a former Rite Aid drugstore at 1315 Jefferson Ave., offers basic medical services in an underserved part of Buffalo.
The move arose after Kaleida Health closed the 30-year-old family medicine center in its Deaconess Center on Humboldt Parkway, said Dr. Thomas Rosenthal, chairman of the department.
