I don’t know how she would be with neuroendocrine issues but she definitely has expertise in more than just diabetes.

Let me know if you’d like her name.


DP. I would like her name

Good luck with finding a good endocrinologist who truly cares and put dedication. I’m on my 7th endocrinologist digging through answers that make sense.


I also have had trouble finding good endocrinologists! Surprisingly, there are a lot who do mainly diabetes and can’t reason their way through the complexity of the hormonal interrelationships in other diagnoses.


They can, but they specialize in diabetes.

If they are board certified in endocrinology, then they can do it. They just choose not to, and that's certainly permitted.


Yes, they may be board certified in endocrinology, so they did know it at one time, but I actually had an endocrinologist laugh and say she hadn't thought about the Vitamin D, Calcium and PTH balance since med school.

Doctors can choose not to take patients who are not diabetic, but people are human and humans are complicated, so even diabetics can show up in your office with non-diabetes complications. Doctors can choose not to remember or practice part of their endocrinology curriculum, but if as a result of that they miss a diagnosis, then they are potentially liable for that.

Thank you, I was wondering about this.


It would be fairly obvious and it’s easy to diagnose with a blood test and easily treated if you do have it.


What are the tests? Can it be mild?

Probably because there is nothing wrong with you. Endocrinologists are over referred


DP. 3 endocrinologists missed my Hyperparathyroidism. At least one attributed it to hypercalcemia of malignancy, which was wrong (but thanks for the extra mental torture sorting that out. I had to self-purchase labs repeatedly to demonstrate the disease. I finally had curative parathyroidectomy. Unfortunately, I have encountered many mediocre misdiagnosing endocrinologists. PP doesn’t deserve to be gaslit by you.

Your neurologist should be able to recommend someone.

Can your PCP or neurologist recommend a someone for you? Looks like Medstar Health might have something in neuroendocrinology
