Life Line Diagnostic & Cardiac Hospital

Diabetology & Endocrinology

Our Diabetology & Endocrinology service supports adults with diabetes, thyroid disorders, obesity-related metabolic risk, and other hormone-related conditions—through structured assessment, laboratory monitoring, lifestyle guidance, and coordinated care with cardiology, nephrology, and eye services when complications need attention.

About the department

Our diabetology & endocrine clinic

Consultation and chronic disease care setting

Type 1 and type 2 diabetes, pre-diabetes, gestational follow-up where applicable, hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, polycystic ovary syndrome–related metabolic issues, and adrenal or pituitary referrals are assessed in clinic with attention to blood pressure, weight, kidney function, and foot health. We align treatment with national and international guidance on glucose targets, statin use when indicated, and safe medication adjustments. Education on meal planning, physical activity, sick-day rules, and self-monitoring of blood glucose is part of long-term follow-up. When surgery, pregnancy, or acute illness complicates control, we liaise with anesthesia, obstetrics, or emergency teams in the same hospital.

Frequently asked questions

Bring a list of all medicines and supplements, your glucometer or logbook if you use one, recent lab reports, and identification. If fasting blood tests are booked, confirm the fasting window with reception when you schedule.
Most stable adults are reviewed every three to six months; newly diagnosed or poorly controlled diabetes may need more frequent visits until targets improve. Thyroid disorders may need testing every few months after a dose change, then less often once stable.
If you feel shaky, sweaty, confused, or your glucose reads low, take fast-acting carbohydrate as you were taught (for example glucose tablets or juice), recheck after 15 minutes, and repeat if still low. If symptoms are severe or you cannot swallow safely, seek emergency help immediately.
Dose changes are usually made after reviewing symptoms and recent thyroid function tests. A brief call for clarification may be possible, but most adjustments require an in-person or formal telemedicine review per hospital policy.
