DEPARTMENT OF ENDOCRINOLOGY

The department of Endocrinology has been established as one of the finest dedicated to patient care and research work in the field of Endocrinology, metabolism and diabetes. The department faculty is trained from prestigious AIIMS New Delhi and PGI Chandigarh. In addition to routine patient care, department has started D.M. programme from 2011 onwards with an intake capacity of two per session. Department is one of the busiest services in the outpatient settings. Department in the past has published many epidemiological studies on Iodine deficiency, diabetes mellitus and Sheehan’s syndrome. The research activities of the department in the recent past included details about haematological and cardiac abnormalities in Sheehan’s syndrome, genetic studies in DIDMOAD syndrome, hypothyroidism and polycystic ovary syndrome and vitamin D status and diabetes and polycystic ovary syndrome to name a few.

DEPARTMENTAL SERVICES:

Endocrine and Pediatric Endocrine Clinic: Department is running a outpatient endocrine clinic on daily basis in room no 159and 160 and pediatric endocrine clinic on Saturdays.
Diet Counselling: This facility is available on daily basis in room no 170 where in highly trained dieticians and nutritionists interact with the patients.
HbA1C: The facility for estimation of HbA1C is available on daily basis , samples are collected and report dispatched same day.
Other Facilities: Facility for estimation of osmolality, continuous glucose monitoring, thyroid ultrasound and DXA will soon be available in the department.
RESEARCH ACTIVITIES: Currently many research projects on type 1 diabetes, Sheehan’s syndrome, Polycystic Ovarian syndrome, metabolic syndrome, hyperprolactinemia and vitamin d and diabetes are in progress.
CONFERENCES: Department of endocrinology in collaboration with international osteoporotic federation (IOF) and Indian Society of Bone and Mineral research (ISBMR) is organizing 8th national conference in Sept 2013.
