Christopher Kuhner, MD

As an emergency medicine physician at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing exceptional care during my patients' most vulnerable moments. Specializing in emergency medicine allows me to engage with a diverse range of patients, addressing a broad spectrum of diseases and injuries with varying levels of severity, which is a true privilege.

Being the first in my family to embark on a career in healthcare, I see my work as a harmonious blend of my passion for scientific research and the art of medicine. I prioritize building collaborative relationships with my patients to ensure their healthcare needs are met with the utmost importance.

As an emergency medical services faculty member, I focus on advocating for patient populations in the pre-hospital setting. My experience with the New York City Fire Department has equipped me to enhance systems of care outside the hospital environment. Through patient education and community outreach, I am committed to improving the lives of New York City residents.
