Loic Tchokouani

A surgical center in Manhattan’s Kips Bay area meets medical care and efficiency. Loic Tchokouani anchors the site, a dedicated space for procedures that don’t require an overnight stay. Procedures like cataract removal, gallbladder removal, and hernia repairs are common here. The center also handles varicose vein treatments and skin lesion removals with the same focus. Surgeons often perform biopsies and certain orthopedic interventions under this roof as well.

The address—550 1st Ave, New York, NY 100166402—places the facility blocks from Bellevue Hospital and midtown’s east side arteries. East River views are visible from upper floors; the location makes it a practical choice if you’re juggling multiple stops in the neighborhood. The building’s footprint sits between First Avenue and the FDR service road, with quiet side streets just one block away. Public transit options include the 6 train at 28th Street and multiple bus routes on First and Second Avenues.

Contact the office directly for scheduling or questions about preparation. One quick call suffices: (646) 929-7800. Wait times for consultations vary by procedure type, so plan ahead when you reach out. Same-day or next-day slots sometimes open up, depending on the schedule. The staff can clarify what to bring and when to arrive on the day of the procedure.
