Trust Our Experts in Endocrine Disorders
UConn Health’s team of board-certified endocrinologists specializes in diagnosing, managing, and treating all endocrine disorders, including diabetes, thyroid dysfunction, osteoporosis, and bone and mineral disorders.
The endocrine system is a collection of glands and organs that secrete hormones affecting metabolism, growth, and organ function. The endocrine glands include the endocrine pancreas, thyroid, pituitary, parathyroid, adrenal glands, and gonads. We understand that a lot can change in these organs, and we are here to support you.
The endocrine glands can also develop benign and malignant tumors, and our endocrine neoplasia specialists see patients with these conditions.
