Endocrinology
Endocrinology
Experienced team of dedicated endocrinologists
The body’s endocrine system is complex. There are a number of components, and a number of ways each one might fail to work as expected.
For example, you might not produce enough of one hormone, or too much of another; your body may produce the right amount of a hormone, but not know where to send it. Understanding this system and its variables, and knowing how to counteract or prevent these issues arising is the job of the endocrinologist.
London Medical are pleased to have a team of passionate, dedicated, and expert endocrinologists, each striving to develop the field, and provide patients with the highest levels of care and service.
