Finding a primary care provider who truly knows your family is not easy. At M.F. Family Health NP P.C on Hylan Boulevard, Staten Island, we built our practice around that exact need. We see patients aged 14 and older, so teenagers, adults, and seniors can all receive care under one roof.
Dr. Marina Fest holds a Doctor of Nursing Practice and was trained at New York University and Pace University. Her background covers cardiology, nephrology, dialysis, and rehabilitation. That range of experience means she understands how the body’s systems connect, which helps when a patient’s concern does not fit one simple category.
What Your Family Gets From a DNP-Led Practice in Staten Island
Families want more than a quick appointment. They want a provider who tracks their health over time, manages their conditions consistently, and connects them to the right care when needed. That is what we offer every patient who comes through our doors on Hylan Boulevard.
From preventive visits and physicals to chronic disease management and telehealth, our services are designed to cover your family’s needs at every stage. Whether you are 14 or 64, your care here is personalized, consistent, and built around you, not a generic template.
Prevention Comes Before the Problem
Prevention is the foundation of good primary care. We offer disease prevention, immunizations, and physical exams, including routine wellness visits, sports physicals, school physicals, employee physicals, and pre-operative exams. Every visit includes real guidance on diet, exercise, and healthy lifestyle choices.
Starting early with preventive care reduces the risk of bigger health problems later. When we know your health history and your family’s patterns, we can spot concerns before they become conditions. That early awareness is one of the most valuable things a long-term primary care relationship offers.
Chronic Condition Management That Does Not Stop Between Visits
Living with a chronic condition means your health needs attention beyond one appointment. We manage diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, asthma, COPD, obesity, anxiety, and depression. Medicine management, specialist referrals, and follow-up care after hospital stays are all part of what we provide.
Consistency matters when you are managing something long-term. We keep track of your progress, adjust your plan when needed, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks. Patients who stay with one practice over time tend to get better outcomes, and that is exactly what we aim for here.
Telehealth for New York and Florida Patients
Not every visit needs to happen in person. We offer telehealth appointments for patients in New York and Florida. If you cannot make it to our Hylan Boulevard office, a telehealth visit keeps your care moving without any interruption.
Telehealth gives you flexibility around those hours, especially for follow-ups, chronic condition check-ins, and situations where a conversation with your provider is all you need.
Allergy Testing and Immunotherapy Without a Separate Referral
Allergies can develop at any point in life, even if you have never had them before. We test for inhaled allergens like pollen, ingested allergens like peanuts, soy, and seafood, and contact allergens that affect the skin. Testing is precise and tailored to your individual reaction patterns.
Once we identify your triggers, we build a customized immunotherapy plan specific to your allergic pattern. You do not need to visit a separate specialist or manage multiple providers. Testing and treatment happen here, which makes the whole process easier for patients and families.

Medical Weight Loss Built Around Your Biology
Weight loss is not just about eating less. Our physician-supervised program includes Tirzepatide (Zepbound) with step-up dosing and nutraceutical support options like Nutrafol, Ashwagandha, Collagen, Saw Palmetto, and Curcumin. Every plan is built around the individual patient.
If hormonal factors are affecting your weight, we can also bring in functional medicine services, including hormone, gut, thyroid, and adrenal testing. Looking at the root cause behind weight gain gives us a clearer picture and a more effective path forward for each patient we work with.
Care That Grows With Your Family Over the Years
We see patients from age 14 and up, which means your teenager and your parents can both be patients here. When one practice knows your family’s full medical picture, coordinating care becomes simpler and gaps in your health history are far less likely to occur.
Conditions that run in families, medications that interact, and health patterns across generations are all easier to manage when your provider sees the whole picture. That kind of continuity is a practical advantage that adds real value to your family’s long-term health.
