Our endocrinology team offers advanced diagnostic and treatment services for a wide range of hormonal and metabolic disorders. Whether you are seeking care for diabetes, thyroid conditions, or hormone-related issues, our experienced endocrine doctors and thyroid doctors provide personalised care plans tailored to your specific needs. As part of a leading diabetes centre, we ensure that every patient receives coordinated and evidence-based management for both endocrinology & diabetes conditions under one roof.
The department also refers to ophthalmologists for retinopathy evaluation, to neurology for nerve conduction studies and EMG for neuropathy and myopathy evaluation, to vascular surgeons and radiology for fine needle aspiration biopsy of thyroid nodules and subsequently thyroid surgery as required. Referrals are also made to cardiology for evaluation and assessment of high-risk cases and a dietician for appropriate guidance to patients regarding management of diseases as complex as diabetes, hyperlipidaemia, metabolic syndrome and obesity. A nephrologist is also involved when patients have chronic kidney disease secondary to diabetes and hypertension.
Our endocrinology department works closely with specialists across multiple disciplines to deliver holistic care. From routine check-ups to complex hormone management, patients benefit from access to leading endocrine doctors and thyroid doctors at our trusted diabetes centre. By combining expertise in endocrinology & diabetes, we help patients maintain optimal health, balance hormone levels, and improve their overall quality of life through personalised and compassionate medical care.
