What Paediatric Endocrinology covers

Conditions treated
  • short stature and slow growth
  • early or delayed puberty
  • type 1 diabetes in children
  • thyroid problems in children
  • childhood obesity and its complications
When to see one instead of a GP
A paediatrician plots height and weight at every visit. This sub-specialty is where a child goes when growth falls off the curve, when puberty starts early or hasn't started, or when diabetes needs a childhood-specific plan.
Do you need a referral?
No referral needed. Bring the growth record from the Maternal and Child Health Centre or school, and the parents' own heights — both go into the assessment.
