Our Services
Type 2 Diabetes
If diabetes is caught and treated early, we can help you keep your blood sugar regulated to avoid later problems, such as nerve damage to eyes, feet, heart, and brain.
Some ways to manage Type 2 diabetes include medication, dietary adjustments, exercise, and regular checkups.
Ask us for a test if you have symptoms that suggest prediabetes, such as peeing more often at night, losing weight without trying, and feeling extremely thirsty or tired all the time.
Thyroid
We can diagnose thyroid problems through physical exams and blood tests, and help you manage your condition with a variety of medications according to whether you have an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) or an underactive one (hypothyroidism). Sometimes hormone replacement therapy is sufficient.
GERD, IBS
Both gastroesophageal reflux and an irritated bowel are debilitating conditions that affect your work and social life. We can help you manage the symptoms in many different ways and empower you to regain your sense of well-being.
Osteoporosis
This is a condition where your bones have lost some density, leading to possible fractures, which cause inconvenience and a limited lifestyle. We screen, diagnose, and treat osteoporosis as early as possible.
Postmenopausal women are often at risk of osteoporosis due to hormonal deficiencies – and hormone therapy can help.
Men, too, can get osteoporosis, due to age, genetics, steroid use, or low testosterone, among other possibilities.
Apart from dietary and lifestyle adjustments to help limit risks of fracture – such as a calcium-rich diet and vitamin D supplementation – there are also medications available to address osteoporosis.
PCOS
We have decades of experience in helping women manage PCOS symptoms according to your unique needs. Sometimes weight loss helps, or using specific medications to address symptoms like excess hair or irregular periods.
