Our Endocrinology Services

Diabetes Management (Type 1 and Type 2)
Diabetes is one of the most common metabolic disorders, and managing it effectively is key to preventing complications. Our endocrinologists specialize in managing both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, offering personalized care plans that may include medication, insulin therapy, lifestyle counseling, and continuous glucose monitoring. We work with you to help you maintain healthy blood sugar levels and prevent long-term complications.
Thyroid Disorders
The thyroid plays a critical role in regulating metabolism and energy. Our team is experienced in diagnosing and treating a variety of thyroid conditions, including:

  • Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid)
  • Hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid)
  • Hashimoto’s thyroiditis
  • Graves’ disease
  • Thyroid nodules and cancer

We offer comprehensive diagnostic services, including ultrasound, biopsy, and blood tests, to provide accurate diagnoses and tailored treatment plans.

Adrenal Gland Disorders
The adrenal glands produce important hormones like cortisol and adrenaline that regulate various bodily functions. We specialize in managing adrenal disorders such as:

  • Addison’s disease
  • Cushing’s syndrome
  • Adrenal insufficiency
  • Pheochromocytoma

Our team utilizes advanced diagnostic imaging and lab tests to evaluate adrenal function and provide effective treatment.

Osteoporosis & Bone Health
Hormonal imbalances, especially in estrogen and testosterone, can lead to bone density loss and increased risk of osteoporosis. Our endocrinologists assess bone health through DEXA scans and other tests to diagnose osteoporosis and help manage treatment, including calcium and vitamin D supplementation, medications, and lifestyle changes aimed at strengthening bones and preventing fractures.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
PCOS is a common hormonal disorder that affects women of reproductive age. Our specialists provide comprehensive care for PCOS, including:

  • Hormonal management (e.g., birth control pills, anti-androgens)
  • Infertility treatment options
  • Weight management strategies
  • Managing insulin resistance

We work with women to manage symptoms like irregular periods, hirsutism (excessive hair growth), and acne, improving overall hormonal balance and quality of life.

Menopause & Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
Menopause is a natural transition, but it can come with challenging symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, and mood swings. Our endocrinologists specialize in managing menopausal symptoms through hormone replacement therapy (HRT), non-hormonal treatments, and lifestyle recommendations to help women navigate this phase with ease and confidence.
Growth & Puberty Disorders
Endocrine disorders can impact growth and puberty in children. We specialize in diagnosing and treating conditions such as:

  • Growth hormone deficiency
  • Delayed puberty
  • Precocious puberty (early onset puberty

Our pediatric endocrinologists provide personalized care and treatment, including growth hormone therapy and other interventions, to help children reach their full growth potential.

Hypogonadism & Male Hormonal Health
Hypogonadism refers to low levels of testosterone and can affect mood, energy, libido, and muscle mass. Our endocrinologists assess male hormone health and provide treatment options like testosterone replacement therapy, as well as guidance on lifestyle changes to improve overall well-being.
Pituitary Gland Disorders
The pituitary gland controls several key hormones in the body, and disorders in this area can impact a wide range of bodily functions. We treat pituitary conditions such as:

  • Pituitary tumors
  • Acromegaly (excessive growth hormone)
  • Prolactinomas (prolactin-secreting tumors)
  • Hypopituitarism (insufficient hormone production)

Our team uses advanced imaging and laboratory tests to diagnose these conditions and create individualized treatment plans, which may include medications, surgery, or hormone replacement.

Comprehensive Diabetes Education & Support
We offer diabetes education and support to help patients manage their condition more effectively. This includes nutritional counseling, exercise plans, and advice on managing blood sugar levels. Our goal is to empower patients with the tools they need to live healthier lives.
