Care Philosophy
This content was provided by Dr. Darukhanavala "My professional interests include treating children who have type 1 diabetes, thyroid and adrenal disorders, and growth disorders. Excessive weight due to poor lifestyle choices may now cause medical problems in children that were once expected only in adults. As a pediatric endocrinologist, I hope to help you make healthy choices now to prevent future problems, such as high cholesterol or type 2 diabetes."
