Dr. Manuela Orjuela

Childhood check-ups, school physicals, and those middle-of-the-night fevers land more smoothly when a pediatrician’s office is just blocks from home. Dr. Manuela Orjuela keeps that practical distance on W 168th Street, where the rhythm of Washington Heights hums just outside the door—bodegas, playgrounds, and the steady pulse of families who’ve made the neighborhood their own.

From newborn screenings to adolescent vaccines, the practice covers the predictable milestones and the sudden scrapes that send parents reaching for the phone. Flu shots, developmental assessments, and sports clearances all fold into the same quiet routine; above the clinic’s entrance, the address—622 W 168th St, New York, NY 10032—stands as a familiar landmark for anyone navigating the area’s mix of walk-ups and hospital buildings.

Questions about growth charts or a lingering cough can be sorted with a quick call to (212) 305-9770. For first-time visits or last-minute appointments, directions are easiest pulled from the map—a straight shot from the 1 train or a short bus ride along Broadway. The office keeps the focus where it belongs: on the kids who’ll outgrow this address long before their parents forget it.
