Typically, you’ll work in both diabetes and endocrinology although some specialists focus on one area and not the other. Life as an endocrinologist or diabetologist:
Predominantly an outpatient specialty, some of your patients will require hospital admission for you to investigate and manage their condition. In addition, you'll often support primary care (GPs) in some of the public health challeng

es such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. What’s more, at least 15% of all hospital inpatients have diabetes or an endocrine disorder. Increasingly, you’ll manage patients jointly with other hospital-based colleagues. As a specialism that covers the effects of hormones on the whole body, you also have skills that can help across all of general medicine and often help support emergency admissions to hospital for people with a broad range of conditions. One of the great things about the specialty is there is no typical day. You may see people of all ages with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes, or diabetic complications or with diabetes in certain circumstances, for example pregnancy. As an endocrinologist, you’ll work in a specialist setting treating patients with a wide range of endocrine disorders. You may be leading team meetings (called multi-disciplinary meetings) or teaching other students or doctors about how to diagnose the more challenging conditions. Endocrinologists and diabetologists treat conditions such as:

diabetes mellitus
thyroid disease
lipid disorders
endocrine disorders of the reproductive system, such as polycystic o***y syndrome
adrenal disease
bone and calcium disorders
pituitary disease
endocrine late effects of cancer treatment

Common procedures include:
programmed investigations for complex endocrine disorders
managing endocrine patients and patients with diabetes before and after surgery
management of diabetic and endocrine emergencies such as ketoacidosis and hypercalcaemia
managing diabetes and endocrine conditions during pregnancy. You’ll also be expected to perform as part of a large, multidisciplinary team including specialist nurses, allied health professionals and other specialist clinicians, and work across medical wards treating patients with general medical problems.
