Endocrinology & Diabetes

Sharjah’s Trusted Destination for Hormonal & Metabolic Wellness

What Is Endocrinology?

Endocrinology is the medical specialty focused on the body’s hormones and the glands that produce them. These hormones control many essential functions – from metabolism and growth to mood, fertility, and energy levels. Endocrinologists diagnose and treat conditions caused by hormonal imbalances, including diabetes, thyroid issues, PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome), and adrenal or pituitary disorders.

Expert Care You Can Count On

At Sheikh Sultan Bin Zayed Hospital, our Endocrinology & Diabetes Department provides advanced, patient-centered care for hormonal and metabolic health. Backed by the expertise of physicians from the Imperial College London Diabetes Centre, our team brings decades of experience in managing complex hormonal conditions.

Whether you're seeking help with diabetes, unexplained weight changes, fatigue, or hormonal concerns, our goal is to provide comprehensive care in a welcoming, supportive environment designed around your needs and long-term well-being.

When Should You See an Endocrinologist?

If you're experiencing symptoms like fatigue, unexplained weight gain or loss, irregular periods, hair thinning, or issues with blood sugar or thyroid levels – it’s time to see an endocrinologist. These symptoms can signal underlying hormone imbalances that need expert evaluation and care.

Who Needs Endocrine Care?

People of all ages may need an endocrinologist at different stages in life. This includes those with diabetes, thyroid problems, fertility concerns, bone health issues, growth or puberty disorders in children, or hormonal changes during menopause or pregnancy. Endocrinologists help manage conditions that affect your energy, metabolism, development, and reproductive health.
