Department of Endocrinology and Diabetology
Specialized in: endocrinology, diabetology About the Department of Endocrinology and Diabetology at DKD HELIOS Clinic Wiesbaden
The Department of Endocrinology and Diabetology at the DKD HELIOS Clinic Wiesbaden offers the full range of medical services in the fields of its competence. The doctors of the medical facility specialize in the treatment of hormonal imbalances, metabolic disorders, obesity and diabetes mellitus. An important clinical focus is on nutritional counseling and lifestyle recommendations for the patients with diabetes mellitus, hypertension and obesity. The department's medical team is proud of excellent results in the field of hormone replacement therapy in elderly patients, as well as in patients with adrenal diseases, osteoporosis and thyroid diseases. The doctors working in the department follow the current clinical protocols and apply modern treatment methods, which contributes to the achievement of the desired treatment results. The Chief Physician of the department is Dr. med. Cornelia Jaursch-Hancke.
The department's endocrinologists admit patients with all pathologies of the endocrine organs, including the thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, adrenal glands and pituitary gland. The specialists provide only conservative treatment. If the patient needs a surgical intervention, the surgeons from the Department of Endocrine Surgery will be involved in the therapeutic process. Endocrine cancers are treated in collaboration with oncologists, radiation therapists and chemotherapists. The department's medical team prefers an integrated approach to treatment that combines drug therapy, diet therapy, physiotherapy and hormone replacement therapy (if clinically indicated). The required complex of therapeutic measures is selected strictly individually. The doctors working in the department focus on the patients with impaired pituitary function, goiter, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, thyroiditis, osteoporosis, osteopenia, arterial hypertension, lipid metabolism disorders, etc.
The department's team of diabetologists has been taking care of the health of patients with diabetes mellitus since 1994. During this time, the medical facility has treated more than 3,000 patients. Diabetes mellitus is an incurable disease, and therefore the main task of doctors is to control its course in order to prevent the progression and development of complications. The classic treatment regimen consists of insulin therapy or taking oral antidiabetic drugs, diet therapy and physical activities. Particular attention is paid to teaching patients to live with pathology, and therefore the department conducts 3 special training courses. The first focuses on diet therapy and oral antidiabetic drugs, while the second focuses on insulin therapy. The third one is devoted to intensive insulin therapy. The department holds many individual consultations, during which the attending physician personally communicates with the patient and tells him about further therapeutic measures.
