An Orthodontist for Yorkville, One Q Train Ride Away

If you’re looking for an orthodontist Yorkville families can reach without a transfer, take the Q. From 86th or 96th Street on Second Avenue, it runs straight to Lexington Av/63 St, about a block and a half from our office at 553 Park Avenue.

An Orthodontist Yorkville Families Reach Without a Transfer

Before the Second Avenue Subway opened in 2017, eastern Yorkville had some of the longest walks to a subway in Manhattan. Today the Q gives the neighborhood a direct line to our corner.

Lemchen Salzer Orthodontics has practiced from 553 Park Avenue, at East 62nd Street, since 1974. We treat children, teens and adults from across the Upper East Side.

Our board-certified orthodontists plan every case in-house. We explain each option clearly and don’t push quick decisions.
