Pediatric Endocrinology

At Emirates Specialty Hospital, our Pediatric Endocrinology department is dedicated to diagnosing and treating a wide range of hormonal and metabolic disorders affecting children and adolescents. Our team, led by highly skilled specialists, ensures that young patients receive comprehensive and compassionate care tailored to their unique needs.

Pediatric Endocrinology focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of children with growth, puberty, diabetes, and other hormonal disorders. Hormones play a vital role in a child’s growth, development, and metabolism, and any imbalance or disorder can affect these crucial aspects of life. Our specialists work closely with families to provide accurate diagnoses and effective treatments that support optimal growth and health outcomes.

• Growth and Puberty Disorders: We assess and manage issues related to delayed or precocious puberty, ensuring that children grow and develop in line with their peers.
• Juvenile Diabetes (Type 1 Diabetes): Our experts diagnose and treat children with Type 1 diabetes, providing glucose monitoring plans and insulin therapy, including the use of insulin pumps for better glucose control.
• Thyroid Disorders: From hypothyroidism to hyperthyroidism, we address thyroid issues that can impact a child’s growth, development, and metabolism.
• Pediatric Obesity and Metabolic Disorders: We offer comprehensive evaluations and treatment plans for childhood obesity and related metabolic conditions, promoting healthy lifestyles and weight management.
