Endocrinology Care
Carilion Clinic endocrinologists diagnose, treat and manage health issues of your endocrine system. This system of hormones, glands and organs affects almost every part of your body.
Diabetes care is one of the most common reasons people see us. Or, your primary care team might refer you after a test shows hormone levels that are too high or too low.
We do ultrasounds, biopsies and blood tests to diagnose your health issue. We work with endocrine surgeons to treat issues like thyroid cancer.
We treat people with endocrine issues throughout southwestern Virginia.
Conditions We Treat
Endocrinologists help manage a variety of health issues related to hormones. Endocrine disorders often happen because a gland is making either too much or too little of a hormone. We work closely with other Carilion experts to treat:
Type 2 Diabetes
When the cells can’t use insulin right, the sugar stays in your blood, leading to high blood sugar. Over time, that can create a range of problems in your body.Type 1 Diabetes
An autoimmune condition that requires daily insulin, type 1 diabetes, affects both kids and adults. Our insulin pump program helps make treatment easier.Thyroid Disease
When your thyroid gland isn’t working right, it can lead to diseases like hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, thyroid nodules and thyroid cancer.Adrenal Disease
Issues with the adrenal gland, including Addison’s disease, are highly treatable. We see all types of adrenal problems and offer surgery when necessary.
