| Endocrinology |
Endocrinologists at UHN take care of patients with diabetes, lipid (‘cholesterol’)
disorders, thyroid disease (benign and malignant), osteoporosis and disorders
of other endocrine glands (pituitary, parathyroid, adrenal and some male
and female reproductive disorders).
Our diabetes management team consists of endocrinologists, diabetes nurse
educators, dietitians and chiropodists. In addition, endocrinology has an
inpatient consultation team staffed on a rotating basis by an endocrinologist
and medical residents. We are also working towards improving inpatient diabetes
management for all critically ill and perioperative diabetic patients with
the help of advanced practice diabetes nurses.
Our services:
- Provide consultation to primary inpatient management teams (medical
and surgical) to and manage patients’ Diabetes or other Endocrine
disorders in hospital
- Support other hospital services (particularly cardiovascular and peripheral
vascular surgery, transplantation, general surgery, general medicine)
- Provide outpatient endocrinology/diabetes management
- Conduct research ranging from clinical to fundamental biomedical
research, focusing primarily on diabetes
