Evan Yates, MD

As an emergency medicine physician at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to enhancing patient care through innovative techniques and compassionate treatment. My passion for integrating technology into healthcare led me to specialize in clinical ultrasound, a field that allows me to improve patient outcomes and experiences in real-time.

I have a particular interest in acute pain management, focusing on the use of nerve blocks to minimize opioid reliance. This approach not only alleviates pain effectively but also addresses the broader issue of opioid dependency. With years of experience in emergency medicine, I have honed my skills in performing advanced procedures and am committed to teaching the next generation of physicians.

Throughout my career, I have worked extensively within the NYC Health and Hospitals system, treating some of the most underserved populations. This experience has reinforced my commitment to providing equitable and high-quality care to all patients. My role at NYU Langone allows me to collaborate with a dedicated team, ensuring that my patients receive coordinated and seamless care.

My journey into medicine began with a deep interest in technology and its potential to transform healthcare. After completing my residency at Metropolitan/Harlem Hospital Center, I pursued a fellowship in clinical ultrasound at Bellevue. My background in technology, bolstered by an MBA with a focus on healthcare technology, has been instrumental in my approach to patient care. I am passionate about teaching and mentoring residents and fellows, guiding them in mastering advanced procedures and fostering a commitment to patient wellbeing.
