Endocrinology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the endocrine glands and hormones, as well as the diagnosis and treatment of hormonal disorders.
To provide the best care for patients with thyroid conditions, we have developed a shared-care thyroid register. This means your care is coordinated between your GP and hospital specialists, ensuring you receive the most effective treatment and support.
We also offer a range of specialist endocrine clinics at the Leicester Royal Infirmary that focus on specific hormonal conditions.
You can find details about the accessibility of the endocrinology service on the AccessAble website.
