Division of Endocrinology

As part of a world-class academic medical center, the Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism Division is dedicated to providing a variety of services with competence, compassion and humility to help our patients manage their disease and develop a healthy, normal lifestyle.

Led by Division Chief Dr. Julianne Imperato-McGinley, we are committed to our mission of excellence in providing the best quality-of-care to patients with endocrine and metabolic disorders.

Our areas of expertise in clinical care include:

General endocrinology;
Reproductive endocrinology, including the treatment of menstrual irregularities, hirsutism and menopause;
Thyroid disease, with particular emphasis on thyroid cancer;
Disorders of calcium metabolism;
Metabolic bone disease; and the
Prevention of the recurrence of kidney stones.

Should surgery be necessary for the treatment of an endocrine disorder, we also have an endocrine surgeon on-site.
