Providence Endocrinology - Mill Creek
Providence Medical Group’s Endocrinology and Diabetes clinic offers diagnosis and treatment for hormonal conditions as part of its endocrinology service such as thyroid disorders, diabetes and osteoporosis.
Endocrinology is a specialty of medicine that deals with all diseases related to hormones. This specialty covers physical functions such as metabolism, respiration, reproduction, sensory perception, and movement, as well as the endocrine glands and tissues.
Endocrinologists most commonly provide treatment for the following conditions:
- Diabetes including Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes
- Thyroid diseases including hypothyroidism
- Metabolic disorders
- Menopause
- Osteoporosis
- Cholesterol
- Hypertension
We offer comprehensive care for diabetes, a very common and chronic hormonal condition. Our providers collaborate with a wide range of specialists, including cardiologists and podiatrists, to ensure that all aspects of our patients' diabetes treatment are coordinated for optimal care.
Special services for diabetes patients include evaluation of data from the glucose meter, insulin pump and continuous glucose monitor, for use in helping understand the effect of meals, medication and physical activity on glucose levels. Our certified diabetes educator/nutritionist works closely with our providers to create individualized treatment plans and education related to nutrition, weight management, insulin therapy, blood testing and glucose monitoring, and medication.
Besides diabetes, our specialists offer leading-edge care for hormonal diseases of other types. For example, we offer a unique service for patients with thyroid nodules called ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration, which is used to obtain thyroid cells to be tested for potential cancer.
