Maria Lame, M.D.

Upper East Side parents have a quiet option tucked inside the medical complex at 525 E 68th St Room M130. The building itself is one of those mid-century towers that blends into the hospital skyline, but the entrance is clearly marked for anyone who knows where to look.

Maria Lame, M.D. keeps a pediatric practice here, handling everything from routine check-ups to those middle-of-the-night fevers that send parents scrambling for advice. The office includes basic amenities like a restroom, which can be a small mercy when you're juggling a stroller and a toddler who suddenly remembers they need to pee.

You won’t find weekend hours posted, so weekday visits are the norm. When you’re ready to schedule, call (212) 746-5026—no frills, just the essentials. The number connects directly to the front desk, where someone will walk you through the next available slot.

Directions are easiest if you pull up the map: here’s the pin. The block hums with the usual Yorkville energy—coffee carts, dog walkers, and the occasional siren—so don’t expect silence, but the building’s layout keeps the noise at a manageable distance.
