Aykut Tugertimur, MD

Pediatric care on the Upper East Side often means navigating narrow side streets and high-rise co-ops. Aykut Tugertimur, MD, operates from a brownstone just off Third Avenue, where the neighborhood’s mix of families and professionals creates a steady rhythm of strollers and school pickups.

Well-child visits, school physicals, and same-day sick appointments are part of the routine here. Immunizations, developmental screenings, and adolescent medicine round out the services without fanfare. The office sits at 261 E 78th St, New York, NY 10075, a block where pre-war facades give way to quiet courtyards.

Parents who prefer a smaller practice over large clinics tend to find the setting familiar. The area’s density means most families walk, though the 77th Street subway stop remains a reliable option for those coming from farther afield.

Questions about vaccines, growth charts, or ear infections can be directed to (212) 434-4730. For directions, the map is available here. The block hums with the kind of quiet efficiency that defines the neighborhood.
