An endocrinologist is a physician with extensive training in understanding, diagnosing and treating conditions related to the endocrine system.
The endocrine system regulates the balance of hormones. Conditions of the endocrine system involve an over-abundance, or deficiency of a certain hormone. While there is a range when it comes to the amount of a hormone that is deemed normal in a human, these specialists determine whether a person's amount of hormone is indicative of a health concern.
Through blood tests and other diagnostic means, an endocrinologist will often diagnose and treat the following conditions:
- Diabetes
- Hypothyroidism/hyperthyroidism
- Metabolic syndrome
- Obesity
