Diabetes Treatment and Management
At People Tree Hospitals, our Endocrinology & Diabetology Department is dedicated to providing expert, personalized care for individuals living with diabetes. With a team of experienced endocrinologists, diabetes specialists, and dieticians, we offer comprehensive diabetes management, empowering patients to take control of their health and lead fulfilling lives.
There are several types of diabetes:
Type 1 Diabetes: An autoimmune condition where the body’s immune system attacks insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, leading to a lack of insulin.
Type 2 Diabetes: The most common form of diabetes, where the body becomes resistant to insulin or does not produce enough insulin to maintain normal blood sugar levels.
Gestational Diabetes: A type of diabetes that develops during pregnancy and can increase the risk of Type 2 diabetes later in life.
Pre-diabetes: A condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as diabetes. Without intervention, it can progress to Type 2 diabetes.
Obesity Management
At People Tree Hospitals, our Endocrinology & Diabetology Department is committed to providing holistic and personalized care for patients struggling with obesity. We understand that obesity is not just a cosmetic concern but a serious health condition that can lead to a range of complications, including diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, and more. Our expert team of endocrinologists, dieticians, and fitness specialists work together to develop tailored treatment plans that address the root causes of obesity, helping patients achieve sustainable weight loss and improved health outcomes.
Obesity is a complex condition involving an excessive amount of body fat. It occurs when energy intake (from food and drink) exceeds energy expenditure (through physical activity and metabolism). Factors such as genetics, hormonal imbalances, lifestyle choices, and underlying medical conditions can contribute to weight gain.
Thyroid Management
At People Tree Hospitals, our Endocrinology & Diabetology department offers comprehensive care for thyroid disorders. Thyroid conditions are common and can significantly impact your overall health if left untreated. Our team of expert endocrinologists provides accurate diagnosis, personalized treatment plans, and ongoing support to manage thyroid problems effectively.
The thyroid is a small gland located in the neck that plays a vital role in regulating metabolism, energy levels, and overall hormonal balance. Thyroid disorders can arise when the gland produces too much or too little thyroid hormone, affecting various bodily functions.
The most common thyroid conditions include:
Hypothyroidism: A condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone, leading to fatigue, weight gain, cold intolerance, and depression.
Hyperthyroidism: An overactive thyroid gland that produces too much hormone, causing symptoms such as rapid heartbeat, weight loss, anxiety, and heat intolerance.
Goiter: An enlargement of the thyroid gland, which may be associated with either hypo- or hyperthyroidism.
Thyroid Nodules: Small lumps or growths in the thyroid gland that may need evaluation to rule out cancer.
Thyroid Cancer: A less common but serious condition that requires specialized treatment and long-term management.
Pediatric Endocrinology Management
At People Tree Hospitals, our Pediatric Endocrinology services are dedicated to diagnosing, managing, and treating hormonal and metabolic disorders in children. We understand that endocrine conditions in children require specialized care and a compassionate approach to help them lead healthy, fulfilling lives. Our team of expert pediatric endocrinologists works closely with families to address a range of hormonal imbalances and conditions that affect growth, puberty, metabolism, and other vital body functions.
Bone Health Management
At People Tree Hospitals, we recognize the critical link between endocrine health, diabetes, and bone health. Our Endocrinology & Diabetology Department is dedicated to providing comprehensive bone health management to help our patients maintain strong and healthy bones throughout their lives.
Bone health is vital for overall well-being and mobility. Conditions such as osteoporosis, osteopenia, and fractures can significantly affect your quality of life. Several factors contribute to bone health, including hormonal balance, nutritional intake, physical activity, and underlying medical conditions, particularly diabetes and endocrine disorders.
Diabetes can adversely affect bone health in various ways:
Decreased Bone Density: High blood sugar levels can lead to reduced bone density, increasing the risk of fractures and osteoporosis.
Hormonal Changes: Diabetes can disrupt the balance of hormones that regulate bone metabolism, further compromising bone strength.
Delayed Healing: Individuals with diabetes may experience slower healing of fractures and wounds, complicating recovery.
