ENDOCRINOLOGY

Talk about hormone imbalance and the only things that come to our mind are Thyroid issues or Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. However, there are so many more hormones streaming through our body, controlling various bodily functions and maintaining our overall health. Even the slightest change can set-off a chain reaction. Hormonal Imbalances are not always easy for a lay man to detect and it’s not a good idea to self-medicate either. Our Endocrinologists are experts in their field and competent enough to treat any hormonal condition.

Some of the conditions that we treat are:
