Nicolas Hidalgo Corral, MD

Upper East Side parents often find themselves weighing the same handful of pediatric practices when a new school year or flu season rolls around. Nicolas Hidalgo Corral, MD operates from a third-floor office just off the corner of Madison and 101st, an address that slots neatly into the daily rhythms of neighborhood families.

At 1468 Madison Ave, the building’s limestone facade blends with the surrounding medical corridor; pediatricians here have long been the default choice for well-child visits, sports physicals, and those late-afternoon fevers that never wait for convenient hours. The practice keeps the usual slate of check-ups, immunizations, and developmental screenings on the calendar, alongside same-day sick appointments when schedules allow.

Questions about feeding schedules or sleep regressions can be directed to (844) 733-7692, where the front desk picks up quickly during weekday mornings. Parents also use the line to confirm insurance coverage before the first visit or to request school forms be faxed over.

Finding the entrance can take a minute—look for the side door between the pharmacy and the dry cleaner—so pulling up directions on your phone beforehand saves circling the block.
