Kristin Spengler

Nurse practitioners handle a lot in this city. Kristin Spengler is one of them, operating from the medical campus that stretches along York Avenue.

At NewYork-Presbyterian / Weill Cornell Medical Center on 525 E 68th St, the practice covers primary care, preventive screenings, chronic disease management, minor procedures, and urgent visits—all under the same roof as the hospital’s specialists. Patients here tend to value the continuity; seeing the same provider for routine check-ups and sudden flare-ups saves time and paperwork.

Upper East Side addresses like this one often blend into the background, but the medical corridor has its own rhythm. Appointments can be scheduled by calling (212) 746-0318, though the line sometimes hums with the usual clinic bustle.

Directions are easiest pulled from the map: a short walk from the 6 train at 68th Street or a quick cab ride from anywhere in Midtown. No need to overthink it—just show up with your insurance card and a list of questions.
