Endocrinology Department
An endocrinologist is specially trained to diagnose and treat hormone imbalances and problems by helping to restore the normal balance of hormones in your system. Conditions treated can include:
- Diabetes
- Thyroid diseases
- Metabolic disorders
- Over or under production of hormones
- Menopause
- Osteoporosis
- Hypertension
- Cholesterol (lipid) disorders
- Infertility
- Lack of growth (short stature)
- Cancers of the endocrine glands
Endocrinologists also conduct basic and clinical research to learn the best methods to treat patients with a hormone imbalance. Through research, endocrinologists can help develop new drugs and treatments for hormone problems. Having an Endocrinologist on staff offers an important advantage in patient care at The Jackson Clinic and should serve as your main physician for endocrine disease-related problems.
