Endrocrinology Team at Mission Heritage Medical Group
Mission Heritage Medical Group's Endocrinology team of five physicians,
two nurse practitioners and a registered dietitian focuses on caring for
the person as well as the disease. Most endocrine disorders are chronic
diseases that necessitate life-long care, and an understanding of the
patient at the personal and social level as well on the molecular level
- making the physician–patient relationship very important in the
therapeutic process.
Some of the most common endocrine diseases include:
- Diabetes mellitus
- Hypothyroidism
- Metabolic syndrome
- Osteoporosis
The diagnosis and treatment of endocrine diseases are guided by laboratory
tests to a greater extent than for most specialties. Our endocrinologists
have an extensive knowledge of clinical chemistry and biochemistry to
understand your conditions and look forward to building a relationship
with you that guides you to your optimal health.
Also available in our Endocrine Department:
- The Osteoporosis Center
- Clinical Research Department
- Diet & Nutrition Management
MHMG's Endocrinology Department is comprised of six Endocrinologists,
two Nurse Practitioners and one Dietician.
