ZocDoc is an online service which helps residents of Manhattan find doctors and dentists near them. You can learn more about the doc or dentist along with reviews and the ability to book appointments online. Today they are announcing expansion to Brooklyn. Thirteen doctors are now in the ZocDoc system in Brooklyn, mostly in north Brooklyn. More than 2,700 users requested the service for Brooklyn since ZocDoc launched in Manhattan.

What's great about ZocDoc is that you can book appointments online and get reminders. You can also find immediate availability across the network should an emergency arise. The system also understands a variety of insurance plans and can recommend a doctor or dentist based on your plan.

Our man on the street headed into the "other" boroughs to find out what people there think about ZocDoc's expansion into Brooklyn. An unidentified woman in Forest Hills said, "Why Brooklyn? Haven't you seen the teeth of the people around here, we need ZocDoc way more than those people". In Riverdale, "Tom" said, "This certainly is disappointing, we are always left for last."
