My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...

I have been practicing general internal medicine and taking care of patients throughout the New York City metro area since 1983. I believe the essence of providing quality care is building close and personal relationships with patients and their families. This happens when there is trust, open communication and a mutual commitment to a healthy lifestyle. 

In my personalized healthcare practice, I have more time to work closely with all of my patients and tailor their care to their unique needs and goals. For the past 25 years, I have been recognized as one of Castle Connolly’s “Top Doctors” in New York. My MDVIP-affiliated practice also offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices.

My office is conveniently located on the lower west side of Manhattan, and I am affiliated with New York University Medical Center. I care for patients in the immediate area, as well as surrounding neighborhoods, including Chelsea, Gramercy, Midtown, Tribeca, Flatiron, Murray Hill, Union Square, East Village, West Village and the tristate region. 

I take pride in having an exceptional and attentive office staff who know my patients on a personal level. As a private doctor, my patients have peace of mind knowing I am available for same-day or next-day appointments, as well as by cell phone for urgent needs. In addition to primary care, I also focus on prevention and treatment of hypertension, diabetes and high cholesterol. I aim to partner with my patients to better understand and solve their medical problems through early interventions and wellness counseling.

from Iris in NY March 10, 2018 for Peter J. Zeale, MD

Hi, Dr. Zeale. As you know, I joined MDVIP only because I did not want to lose you as my doctor. Now that I can't get to New York to see you, I sometimes question my membership. But I really like the way you communicate and make sensible choices and, with this structure, can take more time with me than the other doctors I occasionally see in Woodstock and Anna Maria, Florida. The… See more

from Eileen in NJ February 28, 2018 for Peter J. Zeale, MD

Dear Dr. Zeale,
Thank you for diagnosing me with Lyme disease back in 1997; I finally had a cause for my ~ 40 accumulated signs & symptoms that had been plaguing me for 4 years! No other MD had thought of it until then.
Sincerely,
Eileen M., MD

from Deborah in NY February 28, 2018 for Peter J. Zeale, MD

I had been a patient of Dr, Jeff Silver in Chestnut Hill, MA. He was wonderful.
However, I had made the decision to move to NYC and had no choice but to find another physician. I was very hesitant when I began with Dr. Zeale in NYC. Having such a great relationship with Dr. Silver, I knew it was going to be difficult to get used to someone new. However, the first day I went to his… See more
