Overview.

Our endocrinology team treats hormonal conditions across the lifespan, with a particular focus on diabetes, thyroid and metabolic bone disease. Diabetes patients enter a structured pathway combining consultant clinics, dietitian and nurse education, and continuous glucose monitoring where appropriate. Thyroid nodules and adrenal/pituitary disease are reviewed in close partnership with surgery, radiology and oncology.
