Elaine F. Kung, MD

A board-certified dermatologist with a downtown practice, Elaine F. Kung, MD brings specialized care to Canal Street’s medical corridor. Pigmentation disorders and acne are common threads on her patient list, alongside eczema management and adult skin-cancer screenings. Melasma treatments and psoriasis consultations round out a busy schedule for city residents juggling flare-ups and work deadlines alike.

The office sits above street level at 185 Canal St #506, two blocks east of Broadway and one long block south of Broome’s trending half-mile. Canal’s pulse—food carts, foot traffic, and the occasional honking cab—makes the block feel practical yet fast; here, clinic bells ring between the chatter of bodega coffee cups and the thud of messenger bags dropping at desks. Above street noise, the building’s ventilation keeps the waiting area quiet, a small mercy when allergens or rashes demand attention.

Call (212) 343-8818 between appointments to check availability or to set a follow-up visit directly. A map online will get you to the elevator marked 506 without circling the block—convenient when a sudden itch or lingering sunburn can’t wait until the next lunch break.
