Nicholas Gavin

Up near Washington Heights, just blocks from the Hudson, Nicholas Gavin practices as an emergency care physician. The address—622 W 168th St—puts him in a stretch of the city where urgent medical needs don’t pause for subway delays or traffic snarls. Emergency medicine here isn’t just about stitches and sprains; it’s about the kind of rapid, decisive care that New Yorkers sometimes need between a late-night shift and the first light of dawn. This part of Manhattan moves fast, and so does the work of assessing chest pains, stabilizing fractures, or managing sudden allergic reactions before the next step—whether that’s admission, referral, or just the relief of a clean bill of health.

For anyone mapping out their options in this corner of the city, a quick call to (212) 305-9876 connects directly to the practice. No frills, no detours—just the practical details. And if the streets are confusing (because, well, 168th St has a way of bending expectations), the map cuts through the noise. Emergency care doesn’t wait; neither should the route to it.
