Diabetes & endocrinology care
Hormones, produced in our endocrine system, regulate many important functions in our bodies, including our reproductive system, metabolism, and cell growth and development. Our endocrine system constantly adjusts hormone levels so that our bodies can function normally.
A common endocrine disorder, diabetes, arises when your body doesn’t produce enough insulin hormone or doesn’t use insulin properly to convert sugar to energy.

Pituitary Tumor Program
The pituitary gland, often called the “master gland,” controls how many hormones your body makes. Pituitary tumors can result in hormonal overproduction, or too many hormones of one kind or another in your body, which can lead to severe endocrine conditions. The University of Colorado Tumor Program, one of the largest and most experienced of its kind, is nationally recognized to evaluate and treat pituitary tumors. The program includes providers from multiple specialties, including neurosurgery, neuro-ophthalmology, neuropathology, neuroradiology, head and neck surgery, and radiation oncology.
