You want more than anything for your child to be healthy and happy. But sometimes, through either genetic or environmental factors, your child’s health is threatened and you find that you may need help to get and keep them well. For children who may have hormonal imbalances or other problems with the endocrine system, the doctors and specialists at Endocrinology Consultants in Englewood, New Jersey, are exactly the partners you’ll want as they help you establish the correct diagnoses and maintain the critical treatments.
The pediatric endocrinology department at Endocrinology Consultants specializes in treating the glandular issues associated with the endocrine system including: the thyroid, parathyroid, pancreas, ovaries and testes, hypothalamus, pituitary, and adrenal glands. Pediatric endocrinologists understand how growth and development influence endocrine problems. These highly trained medical professionals specialize in managing the unique health needs of children and teens with endocrine or hormonal conditions, such as thyroid issues, growth disorders, and reproductive problems.
Some of the pediatric conditions treated by the doctors at Endocrinology Consultants include:
Pediatric Diabetes, a condition in which insulin, the hormone needed to utilize blood sugar, is either absent or deficient.
Growth and Puberty disorders in which the hormones that regulate growth or the onset of puberty require regulation and treatment so that your child will attain and maintain their expected developmental goals, height, and weight
Thyroid dysfunction leading to imbalances in the normal development, as well as issues with metabolism, energy, heart rate, body temperature and digestion
Parathyroid dysfunction which controls the way calcium is absorbed into the body and enters the blood stream and affects bone mass or density.
Endocrinology Consultants is a physician-owned practice with an almost 20-year commitment to the community of Englewood and the surrounding towns. Their experienced pediatric endocrinologist works in close partnership with local pediatricians to provide the highest level of care to patients, ages newborn through 18. And because Endocrinology Consultants also treats adults, pediatric patients will experience a seamless transition of care once they reach their 18th birthday. Perhaps best of all, Endocrinology Consultants has an in-house lab so tests can be administered on site and results for some tests are immediate.
If your pediatrician has recommended a visit to an endocrinology specialist for your child, or if you have questions or need additional information, please visit the website or contact [email protected]. Because we all know that it is hard to be truly happy until your child’s health issues are under control.
