Endocrine System Disorders
Our endocrine specialists provide expert diagnosis and treatments for osteoporosis, thyroid disorders, menopause, impotence, obesity, polycystic ovary syndrome, and tumors of the pituitary, adrenal and thyroid glands. Diagnostic advances such as ultrasound for thyroid biopsy can be performed right in the physician's office.
The Center for Diabetes and Endocrine Care also offers metabolic testing using ReeVue a device that accurately measures a patient's basal metabolic rate (BMR) by simply breathing into a mask for 10 minutes. Information on a patient's metabolic rate allows dietitians to develop a personalized weight loss program that allows the patient to consume the maximum amount of calories and still lose weight or maintain a healthy weight.
