Karen Hyams, R.D., CDCES

Upper East Side has its share of specialists, but endocrine care isn’t always easy to find on a quiet side street. Karen Hyams, R.D., CDCES offers a focused practice for those managing diabetes, thyroid disorders, and other hormonal imbalances—no frills, just the clinical side of metabolic health. The office sits above the usual medical corridor hum, where the pace slows just enough to handle the details that matter most to patients tracking glucose levels or adjusting medication.

The fourth floor at 1305 York Ave means you’re steps from Weill Cornell’s main campus, a spot familiar to anyone who’s spent time in the neighborhood’s medical orbit. A call to (646) 962-8690 gets you past the front desk and into the system; restrooms are available on-site for longer visits. For directions, the map at this link keeps it simple—no need to guess which entrance leads to the elevators.
