ENDOCRINOLOGY
Endocrinology is the branch of medicine centered on the endocrine system. This is a system of glands that secrete hormones to other organs and systems in the body. These hormones control basic body functions such as metabolism, growth, and sexual development. An imbalance in these hormones can cause various endocrine disorders including diabetes, thyroid disease, pituitary disease, growth problems, osteoporosis, eating disorders, and cholesterol problems. The endocrinologist is specialized in diagnosing and treating these disorders. The services offered by IMG's Endocrinology department are listed below.
