Overview
Endocrinology
We provide diagnosis and treatment for problems of the endocrine system. This is the group of glands within the body which produce hormones.
Our main areas of expertise are:
- adrenal
- pituitary
- neuroendocrine tumours (NET)
- parathyroid
- thyroid
Our range of specialist clinics take place at our hospital day centres.
We hold regular team meetings to discuss your care.
We work closely with different departments. As part of King's Health Partners, we're a centre of excellence for NET tumours.
We aim to avoid delays in your diagnosis and treatment. To support this, we can:
- provide endocrine testing 4 days a week
- assess urgent problems at our rapid access clinic
- review ultrasounds and biopsies review on the same day at our thyroid clinic
