About this specialty
Endocrinology covers type 1 and type 2 diabetes, disorders of the thyroid, adrenal and pituitary glands, and — in children — short stature, delayed and precocious puberty, and the follow-up of growth and hormonal development.
Endocrine disease is managed by numbers: a dose, a timing, and continuous adjustment against laboratory results. A consultant review of the current regimen — particularly in difficult-to-control diabetes or recurrent thyroid problems — often surfaces small adjustments with a large effect.
