Alok Sudhakar Ezhuthachan, MD

Upper East Side parents have a quiet preference for pediatricians who don’t make a fuss. Alok Sudhakar Ezhuthachan, MD fits that bill—routine check-ups, same-day sick visits, and the kind of no-nonsense follow-through that keeps school forms from piling up. The office is at 100 E 77th St, a block where the sidewalks stay wide enough to navigate a stroller without dodging delivery bikes.

What you’ll actually use: flu shots, developmental screenings, and the occasional late-afternoon ear-check when the daycare nurse calls. Vaccine records sync with the city portal, so camp physicals take ten minutes instead of a week. The neighborhood’s mix of pre-war co-ops and newer condos means half the waiting room probably lives within three avenues, but nobody treats it like a social hour.

Add contact info once near the end: call (212) 434-2135. Directions and the usual map pin are here—just don’t expect a neon sign; the building number is easier to spot from the cross street. Best to confirm the next available slot before you trek uptown.
