Endocrinology

Overview

At SRV Hospitals, the Diabetology & Endocrinology department is dedicated to delivering exceptional patient care by utilising the latest advancements in treatments. The department is specialised in diagnosing and treating diseases related to hormones such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol. Our hospital is recognized as one of the leading healthcare providers for diabetology in India.

Diabetes is a metabolic disorder characterised by the inability of the body to produce or use insulin, which is a hormone required to convert food into energy. There are three types of diabetes: type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes. Our hospital is renowned for diagnosing and treating all types of diabetes, and we have some of the most experienced physicians in India.

Endocrinology is the study of hormone-related diseases and focuses on the endocrine system, which consists of glands that secrete hormones into the bloodstream. The hormones produced by the endocrine system play a vital role in regulating various body functions and may have different effects depending on the target organ. Our hospital has some of the best endocrinologists in India who use a range of laboratory tests and diagnostic imaging to provide personalised care to patients. Our team observes changes on a cellular level, making us one of the best hospitals in India for endocrine disorders.

Diagnosis

The department of Endocrinology at SRV Hospitals offers a variety of diagnostic tests to accurately diagnose endocrine diseases. These tests include the Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) test, which is used to screen for diabetes by measuring blood sugar levels after fasting for at least 8 hours, the A1C test, which reflects average blood glucose levels over the past three months, the Random Plasma Glucose (RPG) test, which measures blood sugar levels at any time of the day without the need for fasting, and the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), which measures how well the body’s cells absorb glucose.

In addition to diabetes, the department also specialises in the diagnosis of various other endocrine disorders. Some of the diagnostic tests used include:

  • 24 hour Urine Collection test: Measures hormone levels in the body
  • ACTH Stimulation Test: Assesses adrenal gland response to pituitary gland hormone.
  • Bone Density Test: Detects osteoporosis
  • CRH Stimulation Test: Identifies reasons for adrenal hormone level changes
  • Dexamethasone Suppression Test: Measures pituitary gland’s ACTH secretion control
  • Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy
  • Semen Analysis
  • Thyroid Scan and TSH Blood Test: These tests collectively examine thyroid gland functionality and metabolism.

At SRV Hospitals, we are dedicated to providing top-notch care to our patients.
