Managing asthma means more than having an inhaler—it means taking your medication exactly as prescribed and avoiding triggers that can cause an attack. Not everyone with asthma needs the same treatment. Some medicines are taken daily to prevent attacks, while others provide quick relief during flare-ups.

If you find yourself needing your reliever medication more often, it may be time to adjust your treatment plan. Our experts at NYC Health + Hospitals/Metropolitan can help you find the right care, manage side effects, and keep your symptoms under control.

Summertime means “fun in the sun.” But, while you’re outside being physically active, it’s important to protect yourself from the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays which can damage skin in as little as 15 minutes and increase risk of skin cancer: https://on.nyc.gov/4nkWmPY.

Today, the vibrant sights and sounds of Trinidad and Tobago’s culture filled Metropolitan’s auditorium. Energetic drummers and talented dancers brought the soul of Tobago to our hospital. The highlight of the day? Our CEO took a turn on the steel pan, and our staff joined in traditional dances! It was a joyful, immersive experience that left us all thinking about booking a trip to Tobago.
