Nassau County · Served from Woodbury
OWCP Doctor Jericho NY
No OWCP-credentialed provider operates inside Jericho's 11753 ZIP. Dr. Steven Moalemi, MD, FAAPMR, sees Nassau County federal workers at our Woodbury office, about 4 to 5 miles east via the LIE or Jericho Turnpike, roughly 12 minutes off-peak. We bill DOL directly so there is no out-of-pocket cost. Jericho residents benefit from one of the LIRR's strongest Manhattan commutes (via Hicksville on the Main Line), and from being a short drive from the federal worker cluster on Pinelawn Road and at Republic Airport.

Federal Workers in Jericho and the 11753 ZIP
USPS - Retail & Letter Carrier Dispatch
USPS Jericho Post Office
425 N Broadway, Jericho, NY 11753
The Jericho Post Office on North Broadway handles retail and dispatches letter carriers across the 11753 ZIP and the LIE Exit 45 commercial corridor. Carrier injury patterns here mirror Nassau North Shore norms: dog bites on residential routes, slip-and-falls in winter, cumulative shoulder and knee strain from years of heavy load delivery. Whether a single traumatic event filed as a CA-1 or a long-developing CA-2 condition, Dr. Moalemi's office is a 12-minute drive east.
Beyond the post office, no major standalone federal building sits inside Jericho proper. The nearest standalone federal offices are the SSA Field Office in Syosset (225 South Oyster Bay Road, about 3 miles northeast) and the FBI Long Island Resident Agency on Pinelawn Road in Melville (about 6 miles east on NY-110). Jericho's federal worker base is largely commuter: Manhattan federal employees who ride the Main Line out of Hicksville, federal staff working the Pinelawn or Route 110 corridors, and TSA officers who reach JFK and LGA via the Main Line and AirTrain. If you live in Jericho and work for any federal agency, your home address does not limit your provider choice.

By LIRR
Jericho has no LIRR station of its own. The nearest stations are Hicksville on the Main Line (about 2 miles southwest) and Syosset on the Port Jefferson Branch (about 3 miles northeast). For trips to the Woodbury office, Syosset station is geographically closest because it is south of our office on the same Sunnyside Boulevard corridor. Drive or rideshare to Syosset station, then a 5 to 10 minute ride north.
Via Manhattan
Our Midtown office at 7 W 45th Street is reachable from Jericho via Hicksville on the Main Line, the LIRR's busiest transfer hub with 24-hour service to Penn Station and Grand Central Madison. Door to door from Jericho center, plan 60 to 75 minutes via Hicksville.
Why a Named Physician Matters
OWCP claims succeed or fail on medical documentation. Dr. Moalemi, board-certified in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R), personally signs your reports and IME paperwork. A named, credentialed specialist in your file carries more weight with the Department of Labor than a generic note from a rotating clinic. See his full credentials and background.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there an OWCP-credentialed doctor in Jericho, NY?
Not within the 11753 ZIP. Dr. Moalemi's Woodbury office is about 4 to 5 miles east via the LIE or Jericho Turnpike, roughly 12 minutes off-peak. He bills the Department of Labor directly so there is no out-of-pocket cost, and no agency referral is required to schedule.
I commute from Jericho on the LIRR to Federal Plaza. Where does OWCP cover me?
Wherever the injury occurred on official duty status. A federal employee injured at a Manhattan worksite is covered by FECA regardless of where they live. After urgent care in the city, you can shift OWCP-authorized follow-up to the closest credentialed provider. Dr. Moalemi's Woodbury office is a short drive from Jericho, and our 7 W 45th Street office is a one-train ride from Hicksville.
I work in the Route 110 corridor near Melville and live in Jericho. Can I file OWCP from Jericho?
Yes. OWCP follows the worksite, not the home address. If your worksite is the FBI Long Island Resident Agency on Pinelawn Road, the FAA tower or FSDO at Republic Airport in Farmingdale, or any federal facility on the corridor, you are covered. Bring your federal employment ID and any incident or condition records to the first visit.
How long is the drive from Jericho to Woodbury in rush hour?
Plan 18 to 30 minutes during AM or PM rush, versus about 12 minutes off-peak. The LIE Exit 45 / NY-106-107 / Jericho Turnpike interchange is one of the heavier areas on the route. If you can schedule outside peak hours, you save real time.
What documents should I bring to the first OWCP visit?
Federal employment ID, any CA-1 or CA-2 paperwork you have started, any CA-16 your supervisor signed for medical authorization, any incident reports or witness statements, prior imaging or medical records related to the injury, and a brief list of medications you take. If you do not have some of these yet, come anyway. We help start the paperwork during the first visit.
