Ellen J. Kurkowski, DO

As a physician at NYU Langone, I am committed to providing compassionate and comprehensive care to my patients as part of Virtual Urgent Care. I believe in a holistic approach to healthcare, ensuring that patients receive personalized attention tailored to their unique needs. My goal is to foster strong partnerships with my patients, empowering them to take an active role in their health and wellness.

I specialize in both emergency medicine and internal medicine, having completed a combined residency in these fields in South Jersey. This dual training has equipped me with the expertise to manage a wide range of acute and chronic conditions. Additionally, I completed an ultrasound fellowship at NYU Langone, further enhancing my ability to diagnose and treat complex health issues. With more than a decade of experience, I am dedicated to providing high-quality care and staying abreast of the latest advances in medicine.

Throughout my career, I have focused on proactive healthcare engagement, emphasizing the importance of early intervention and preventive care. My work in virtual telehealth allows me to reach a diverse population of patients, providing them with convenient access to medical care and ensuring continuity of care within the NYU Langone system. I am passionate about leveraging technology to improve patient outcomes and enhance the patient experience.

My journey into medicine was inspired by a desire to give back to the community and make a positive impact on people's lives. Having lived in New York for more than a decade, I am deeply committed to serving the diverse population of this vibrant city.
