Coordinated Pediatric Care in Tribeca: Partnership with Dr. Nilay Donmez of First Steps Pediatrics

Dr.Nilay Donmez- pediatrician at Tribeca

Meet Dr. Nilay Donmez: Tribeca’s Dedicated Pediatrician

Dr. Nilay Donmez is a triple board-certified pediatrician with faculty appointments at Weill Cornell Medicine and NYU. As founder of First Steps Pediatrics NYC, she delivers concierge-style care focused on the vital “first thousand days” of life. Her philosophy rejects corporatized medicine, emphasizing compassionate, personalized support through in-office visits in Tribeca and convenient at-home care.

Dr. Donmez views pediatrics as a privilege—guiding families from expectancy to milestones with heart and expertise.

Our Collaborative Care Model: Medicine + Dentistry for Better Outcomes

This partnership bridges pediatric medicine and dentistry for interconnected child health. Dr. Donmez manages general wellness (check-ups, growth tracking, illnesses, vaccinations).

We address links like:

• Airway & Sleep Issues — Mouth breathing or snoring often signals dental concerns (e.g., crowded teeth or narrow palate). Early palatal expansion prevents sleep apnea risks.
• Overall Development — Healthy teeth support nutrition, speech, and confidence.
• Preventive Focus — Shared insights catch issues early, reducing future treatments.

Tribeca parents benefit from easy referrals—no multiple offices or conflicting advice.

Why Tribeca Families Trust This Partnership

Parents say: “Having a pediatrician and dentist who collaborate makes parenting easier—my child’s breathing improved after coordinated care.” We focus on education, comfort, and long-term health in our community.
