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.

Dr. Zeale made a diagnosis for me after several MDs had missed it, and worked with me and several other MDs to minimize my costs of treatment. Most recently he helped my 91 year old mom who needed urgent care, seeing her right away and treating her to minimize her symptoms. He quickly coordinated with a cardiologist to facilitate resolution and permanent treatment of my mom's new heart… See more

from Anthony in NY February 10, 2014 for Peter J. Zeale, MD

I first met Dr. Zeale when he attended my late Mom who was living at Mary Manning Walsh Nursing Home in the 1990's. He was kind and considerate and did what he could to make her life better.

My wife, Carole, an RN, knew him from St. Vincent's Hospital in New York. We joined him at MDVIP. He is a gentleman and his care is top-notch.

from Myra in NY February 10, 2014 for Peter J. Zeale, MD

I was lucky to have Dr. Zeale before he joined MDVIP. Considering he is the type of doctor that one finds once in a lifetime, I was happy to be able to stay with him when he joined MDVIP. He is a very considerate doctor and always answers any questions I might ask him. And, if anything in your health becomes something he is concerned about, he is not one to frighten you into doing the right… See more

Dr. Zeale is very thorough.

When I was teaching music, if I came in with a mere respiratory infection I thought might be bronchitis or a bad back, he always encouraged me that it wasn't bad as and to go back to my teaching work. No that I'm older he found that I need to be doing more cardio. I'm pretty healthy and walk a lot, go to gym and do Pilates but Dr. Zeale says… See more
