Endocrinology & Diabetes

Our endocrinology and diabetes specialists provide expert care for children with a wide range of hormonal and metabolic conditions, helping them manage diabetes, growth disorders and other endocrine-related health issues for a healthy future.

About Us

At Children's Nebraska, our Endocrinology experts specialize in the care of children from infancy through adolescence with endocrine disorders. The endocrine system plays a vital role in regulating growth, metabolism, reproduction and other key functions by producing hormones that affect various parts of the body. When these hormones are out of balance, it can lead to disorders that affect your child’s development and overall health.

Our team consists of pediatric endocrinologists, pediatric nurse practitioners and physician assistants, nurse educators, social workers, case managers, dietitians and behavioral health specialists, all working together to provide comprehensive evaluation, monitoring and treatment for a wide range of endocrine conditions. This includes conditions like diabetes, thyroid disorders, puberty concerns, growth issues and more. We combine cutting-edge medical care with personalized treatment plans to ensure your child’s wellbeing and long-term health. At Children's, we support the whole child, addressing both the medical and emotional needs of our patients and offering ongoing support through a wide range of resources.
