Expert Care for Hormonal, Growth and Metabolic Disorders in Children
The Paediatric Endocrinology service at Sitaram Bhartia Institute of Science and Research provides evaluation, diagnosis, treatment planning, and long-term care for infants, children, and adolescents with hormonal, growth, puberty, diabetes, thyroid, bone, and metabolic concerns.
Hormones play an important role in a child’s growth, development, metabolism, puberty, blood sugar regulation, bone health, and overall wellbeing. When hormone levels are too high, too low, or when the body does not respond to them properly, children may experience concerns related to growth, weight, puberty, blood sugar, energy levels, or development.
Our Paediatric Endocrinologists work closely with paediatricians, nutritionists, psychologists, diabetes educators, and other specialists to provide coordinated, personalised, and family-centred care for every child.
