Callen-Lorde Chelsea

One of the city’s longest-standing health providers has stood on Chelsea’s streets for years. Callen-Lorde Chelsea sits at 356 W 18th St, in a neighborhood where quick access to care matters. Chronic care and behavioral health slots book up fast in this pocket of Manhattan, and having a dependable clinic nearby matters as rent rises and corners turn over.

The clinic focuses on all-inclusive primary health care, pairing standard visits with immunizations, HIV/STI testing and treatment, PrEP prescriptions, hormone therapy support, and confidential mental-health counseling. Whether coping with a lingering cough or sorting out next steps for medication, patients can step in without jumping through insurance loops. Outside its doors roll the A, C, and E trains, plus the M14 buses, so getting to care doesn’t require extra transfers.

Call (212) 271-7200 to arrange an appointment or walk in when needed. The safest route there shows up on a map—try the link at https://www.google.com/maps/place?ftid=0x89c259bed3655555:0xd8ea1cb4614afba6. Chelsea keeps changing, but solid medical help stays close by.
