Dr. Kuan-Yu Chen, MD

Dr. Kuan-Yu Chen, MD

Primary Care Doctor
481 8th Ave, Ste 1144, NEW YORK, NY
Please Read Before Booking: This is a self-pay Direct Primary Care (DPC) practice. By booking an appointment, patients acknowledge that ongoing care is provided through a monthly membership program ($249/month) rather than traditional insurance billing. Insurance is not billed for membership services, and enrollment may be required to establish ongoing care with the practice. Labs, imaging, medications, and certain third-party services are not included in the membership fee. I'm a board-certified family medicine doctor and a die-hard New Yorker by way of Taiwan. Growing up in both places, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for both cultures, but New York City is where I truly belong. Fluent in Mandarin, I connect with people from all backgrounds, providing culture-sensitive care that makes every patient feel respected and understood. Having seen the flaws in traditional healthcare—long waits, rushed visits, and lack of personal connection—I founded U Care MD to offer accessible, affordable, and personalized care. My focus is on building strong patient-doctor relationships and providing high-quality, comprehensive care tailored to your unique needs. With lived experience in the LGBTQIA+ community, I’m passionate about creating a safe, inclusive space at U Care MD, where everyone—regardless of ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, or cultural background—feels truly seen, heard, and cared for.
