Catering to the busy Brooklyn mom

After giving birth at NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital six months ago, you find your ferritin sitting at 18. The advice you get is to take oral iron, which can be ineffective due to absorption issues. This leaves you worrying about the hair you’re losing in the shower while you’re busy squeezing onto the F train or idling in BQE traffic on a daily basis.

Postpartum women or those with heavy menstruation often fall under the so-called “ferritin gray zone," which shows iron stores of between 15 and 30 ng/mL, seemingly normal blood work, and symptoms like exhaustion, hair shedding, and brain fog. After a Mount Sinai Brooklyn or Brooklyn Methodist delivery, oral iron might not be enough to treat these deficiency symptoms.

Across Brooklyn Heights, DUMBO, and Park Slope, OBs flagging low ferritin during patient appointments also do not have infusion capabilities within their offices for prompt intervention.

A trip to an infusion suite at Brooklyn Methodist, Mount Sinai Brooklyn, or Maimonides Medical Center can mean losing half your day to a combination of BQE traffic or subways, garage parking, and waiting rooms. Visits can be hard to manage, especially with a newborn. Oral iron, a possible alternative, tends to come with side effects such as constipation and stomach cramps while taking months to provide symptom relief.

ABOUT VENOFER® AND HOW WE KEEP YOU SAFE

Venofer® (Iron IV Therapy) is iron sucrose, the same IV iron formulation used by the likes of Brooklyn Methodist, Mount Sinai Brooklyn, and Maimonides Medical Center. It delivers absorbable iron directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive issues that make oral supplements intolerable for most patients looking to replenish their iron stores.

We require recent lab work (a CBC and ferritin test within the past 90 days) before every infusion. This confirms that you are iron-deficient and protects against receiving IV iron when you don't need it (iron overdose).

  • Active infection or fever at time of visit = immediate rescheduling
  • Known iron overload conditions (hemochromatosis) = not a candidate
  • Certain pregnancy stages are screened out for safety
  • Real-time physician backup available during every home visit
  • RNs trained in adverse-reaction protocols and carry emergency supplies

Real Stories From Brooklyn

★★★★★

Fighting the BQE to get to Maimonides for an iron drip can be tiring. Drip Gym sent an amazing RN right to my living room and turned what is normally a full-day ordeal into a relaxing 90-minute visit.

- Chi, Park Slope
★★★★★

After sitting in waiting rooms for hours post-delivery, I realized I couldn't keep doing that with a newborn. I booked Drip Gym online for IV iron, and a nurse was at my house within the week while my baby slept in the other room during my treatment.

-Nancy, Williamsburg
★★★★★

Taking the G train down to Mount Sinai Brooklyn with a baby in tow while completely exhausted was a nightmare. Drip Gym had a nurse arrive at my condo in two days, giving my energy back without me leaving the couch

- Lucia, Greenpoint

QUESTIONS BROOKLYN PATIENTS ASK

At-home Venofer® infusions start at $400 per session, with package pricing available including a ‘buy 5 infusions, get 1 free’ offer. Pricing includes the prescribed Venofer® medication, licensed RN visit, clinical supplies, physician-reviewed lab work, and post-infusion follow-up guidance. HSA/FSA payments are accepted. Most insurance plans do not cover mobile IV iron unless documented anemia and medical-necessity criteria are met.

Venofer® is iron sucrose, a prescription IV formulation that delivers iron directly into your bloodstream. It bypasses your digestive system. That means no stomach cramps or nausea. Most patients experience symptom improvement within two to four weeks.

Most patients tolerate Venofer® well. Mild side effects can include metallic taste, headache, or slight nausea. Serious allergic reactions are rare but possible, which is why we monitor you closely throughout.

Women with confirmed low ferritin (typically below 30 ng/mL) who are symptomatic, exhaustion, hair loss, brain fog, and who either cannot tolerate oral iron or need faster results. You'll need recent CBC and ferritin labs, and our supervising physician reviews every case before approval.

If you book before 11:00 AM, we can often schedule same-day service for an afternoon arrival window. Standard bookings are typically within 24 to 48 hours. You’ll select a 90-minute window that works for your schedule, e.g. after your F train commute.

Yes, with your OB’s clearance. Postpartum iron deficiency is one of the most common reasons our patients in Brooklyn book. We coordinate with your delivering hospital when needed, and we work from your existing postpartum labs.

Possibly. You can have “normal” hemoglobin but depleted iron stores (low ferritin), which puts you in what's called the “gray zone” (not anemic by standard criteria but functionally iron-deficient). Have your recent CBC and ferritin results ready. Our supervising physician determines eligibility based on your labs and symptoms.

Absolutely. The RN just needs a quiet spot (kitchen table, sofa, or dining room) where she can monitor you safely for 60 to 90 minutes.
