Endocrinology

Axis has a world-renown endocrinologist in Dr. Crispin Semakula on our medical staff. Endocrinology is the field of hormone-related diseases. Humans have over 50 different hormones. They can exist in very small amounts and still have a significant impact on bodily function and development.

Hormones regulate metabolism, respiration, growth, reproduction, sensory perception, and movement. A hormone imbalance can result from genetic or environmental factors. Hormone imbalances are the underlying reason for a wide range of medical conditions. Some infants are born with hormonal problems that can lead to low growth.

Endocrinologists commonly treat the following conditions:

diabetes
osteoporosis
menopause
metabolic disorders
thyroid diseases
irregular hormone production
some cancers
short stature
infertility

Endocrinologists commonly treat the following conditions:

stress
inflammation
excessive sweating
poor immune response
low sex drive or function
low estrogen, progesterone, or testosterone.
diabetes
problems with digestion
irregular mineral levels in the blood
stunted or unusual growth

Even if you have no symptoms, we want to prevent heart disease from developing. The Axis provider will review your medical history and carry out a physical examination, beginning with checking your weight , and listening to your heart and lungs.

Your Axis team aims to restore hormone balance within the body’s systems.
