The Pediatric Endocrinology team at UI Health includes board-certified pediatric endocrinologists, certified diabetes educators, a registered dietitian, and a pediatric social worker, and our Diabetes Program has been recognized by the American Diabetes Association for diabetes education.
Our faculty and staff participate in clinical care, teaching, and research. The team provides inpatient care at the Children's Hospital, on the NICU, PICU, and pediatric floors. As faculty members, our endocrinologists also provide education and instruction to medical students, residents, and fellows.
