Specialty
We attend to the details to understand your symptoms and offer a diverse range of tests and imaging with a one-stop approach.
Why do people say they feel hormonal when they feel a little, well, off? That's because hormones affect our bodies in so many ways. They affect concentration, mood, sleep, digestion and more. And where do these hormones come from? The endocrine system, of course. The endocrine system is made of hormone-making glands throughout the body. Endocrine disorders happen when one or more of these glands don't function as they should. Endocrine disorders can cause mild or severe symptoms. They can also mimic other health problems, which often causes some patients to struggle for months or even years without a diagnosis., Why Luminis Health At Luminis Health, we take endocrine disorders seriously. We take a detailed medical history to understand your symptoms and offer a diverse range of tests and imaging with a one-stop approach. This way, you can get the diagnosis and treatment you need to live the life you've been waiting for! We provide medicines, help you make lifestyle changes and, if necessary, help you arrange surgery. Our team follows you throughout your health journey, supporting you and adjusting your treatment as needed. If you have any questions about your symptoms, condition or treatment, don't be afraid to ask. We've helped many patients overcome the same challenges you face today.
