Yamel Blanco

Yamel Blanco operates as a nurse practitioner near the upper reaches of Manhattan. Visits here cover routine assessments and medication reviews, but the roster of services also includes chronic disease management and preventative screening. Issues from sore throats to minor injuries can be evaluated and treated on site. A handful of procedures—such as suturing and joint injections—are available without a separate trip to urgent care. Immunizations and travel consultations round out the offerings.

Catch the 1 train to 168th Street, then walk south on Fort Washington Avenue for a couple of blocks. The office sits on the east side of the avenue just past 163rd Street: 161 Fort Washington Ave New York, NY 10032. The same space also houses a few adjacent clinics, so double-check the lobby directory before heading up.

Pick up the line and you’ll reach someone who can confirm availability or clarify what’s needed before you arrive. (212) 305-0114 connects directly on weekdays during business hours. If you’re unsure about paperwork or insurance, a quick call can save a return trip.
