What we explore
Symptoms usually have more than one contributor.
We consider the areas that most often drive what you are experiencing, then narrow down to the ones your history and examination point towards.
- 01Endocrine history
- 02Existing diagnoses
- 03Previous investigations
- 04Medication
- 05Hormonal and metabolic abnormalities
- 06Complications
- 07Relevant imaging
- 08Previous specialist management
How we investigate
Assessment before assumption.
Investigations are selected according to your history, symptoms, examination and clinical context. Not every patient requires every test.
Specialist clinical assessment
Targeted endocrine blood testing
Review of previous investigations
Imaging where appropriate
Dynamic endocrine testing where indicated
Further specialist investigation where required

Review

Long-term endocrine follow-up
Specialist endocrinology appointments are intended for conditions requiring physician-level endocrine assessment and management.
Focused care. One priority at a time.
Your consultation is centred on the reason you booked. If we identify another area that would benefit from deeper assessment, we may recommend a separate focused consultation rather than trying to address everything superficially in one appointment.

Book the consultation that best matches your main concern. We can build from there if anything else needs deeper assessment.
