24 Hour Urgent Care Services in NYC

Dr. Ronald Primas provides high-touch, personalized urgent care services for discerning New Yorkers and national and international travelers seeking trusted, efficient medical attention without the delays and impersonal experience of traditional walk-in clinics or emergency rooms.

Our private medical office is located directly across from Central Park, on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. It’s a beautiful, serene space—small by design, offering a calm, intimate setting where each patient is treated with discretion and undivided attention. While centrally located, the experience feels worlds away from the noise and pace of traditional clinics.

Dr. Primas offers urgent medical consultations both in-office and on location—whether in your home, hotel suite, private office, or production or event location. Every visit is conducted personally by Dr. Primas, a board-certified internal medicine physician with over 30 years of experience in urgent care, integrative health, travel medicine, and complex diagnostics.
