Endocrinology is the branch of modern medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of disorders related to hormones. The endocrine system regulates growth and maturation, sexual development and reproductive function, bone health and is responsible for the maintenance of glucose, cholesterol, calcium and other electrolytes in the normal range in our body. Since the glands which comprise the endocrine system orchestrate various systems of the body, endocrine disorders present with a wide variety of problems. The Department of Endocrinology at Renai Medicity provides highest quality health care for patients with diabetes as well as other endocrine and metabolic conditions. In addition to daily outpatient services, we also offer consultative, diagnostic and therapeutic services to admitted patients with complete and comprehensive back up round the clock.
