Endocrinologists in Dubai

Hormonal fluctuations can affect blood sugar, weight, energy, growth, bones and reproductive health. Some problems cause clear symptoms, while others may develop without obvious signs. An endocrinologist can pinpoint the cause and suggest the right treatment.

At Aster Hospitals, our endocrinology team treats diabetes, thyroid disorders, metabolic conditions, osteoporosis and other hormone-related problems. The doctor may recommend blood tests, hormone tests or imaging based on your specific symptoms.

Meet Our Endocrinology Specialist

Our experienced endocrinologists offer comprehensive diagnosis and management of conditions affecting hormones and the endocrine system. They help treat disorders such as diabetes, thyroid problems, hormonal imbalances and metabolic conditions. 

They collaborate with specialists across multiple disciplines, including cardiologists, gynaecologists, nephrologists, dietitians and others to provide coordinated care under one roof.

Health Conditions an Endocrinologist Treats

An endocrinologist treats problems caused by changes in hormones or the glands that produce them. These include the thyroid, pancreas, adrenal glands and pituitary gland.

Common conditions are:

• Diabetes and prediabetes
• Underactive and overactive thyroid
• Thyroid nodules
• Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
• Obesity and metabolic disorders
• Osteoporosis
• Calcium and vitamin D disorders
• Adrenal and pituitary disorders
• Growth and hormone problems

Diabetes treatment is a common part of endocrine care. A diabetes specialist at our endocrinology hospital helps manage blood sugar through medicines, diet, physical activity and regular monitoring.

Conditions We Treat at Aster Hospitals Dubai

Diabetes and Prediabetes

High blood sugar can cause thirst, frequent urination, tiredness and blurred vision. Some people may not notice any symptoms. A diabetes doctor checks blood sugar levels and recommends treatment based on your condition.

Thyroid Disorders

Thyroid problems include hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism and thyroid nodules. They may cause tiredness, weight changes, changes in heart rate or sensitivity to heat and cold. Treatment depends on the type and cause.

PCOS and Hormonal Disorders

PCOS can affect periods, ovulation and hormone levels. It can also affect blood sugar and weight. An endocrinologist may check hormone levels and metabolic health before recommending treatment.

Osteoporosis and Bone Disorders

Osteoporosis weakens bones and increases fracture risk. It may not cause symptoms until a fracture happens. An endocrinologist can check for hormonal or metabolic causes of bone loss and recommend suitable treatment.

Adrenal and Pituitary Disorders

The adrenal and pituitary glands control several important hormones. Problems with these glands can affect blood pressure, growth, metabolism and reproductive health. Diagnosis may require specific hormone tests and regular follow-up.

Diagnostic Services in Endocrinology

The right tests help identify the cause of hormone problems. Your doctor may suggest tests based on your symptoms, such as:

• Blood glucose and HbA1c tests
• Thyroid function tests
• Hormone and antibody tests
• Calcium and vitamin D tests
• Bone density scans
• Ultrasound and other imaging tests

These results help the endocrinologist understand your condition and decide if further tests are needed.
