Comprehensive Services for Patients with Endocrine Disorders
Our endocrine specialists provide both inpatient and outpatient care for people with disorders of the endocrine system.
Patients have access to the most advanced diagnostic technology, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, radioactive iodine scans and treatment and PET scanning. When appropriate, patients can participate in clinical trials of new treatment approaches for diabetes, thyroid disease and obesity/metabolic syndrome.

- Diabetes Clinic, staffed by a multidisciplinary team of experts, including certified diabetic educators. We provide diagnosis, treatment, patient and family education and long-term management for people with diabetes
- MedStar Pituitary Center, which provides coordinated care between several medical specialties including endocrinology, neurosurgery, neuro-ophthalmology and radiology
- Thyroid cancer treatment with individualized dosimetry to assess and calculate radiotherapy and use of oral chemotherapy when appropriate.
- Osteoporosis, identification of cause(s) and treatment with current approaches.
