Soe Thein, MD

Psychiatry offices in Lower Manhattan can feel clinical, but they don’t have to. Soe Thein, MD keeps things simple at 291 Broadway, just steps from City Hall and the courthouses. The area hums with weekday energy—suits rushing to hearings, tourists snapping photos of the Woolworth Building—but this corner stays quiet enough for a conversation without distractions.

Finding a psychiatrist who fits your schedule isn’t always easy, especially in a neighborhood where lunch breaks are short and commutes are long. They offer a restroom, which might seem minor until you’re stuck in back-to-back meetings and realize you haven’t had a chance to step away. The building itself blends into the streetscape, unassuming but central, with subway lines a block in either direction.

If you need to reach them, call (917) 310-4724—no automated menu, just a direct line. For directions, the map will guide you past the usual downtown mix of delis and law firms: here’s the spot. The Financial District’s usual rush fades by late afternoon, leaving sidewalks clear for a walk after your appointment.
