A paediatric endocrinologist diagnoses and treats conditions related to hormones, growth, puberty, thyroid, adrenal glands, and metabolism in children.
If your child is growing slower than expected, is very short for their age, or if their growth has stopped suddenly, it’s worth booking an assessment.
Yes. Early puberty (before age 8 in girls or 9 in boys) can sometimes need investigation and treatment to prevent long-term effects on growth and wellbeing.
Unexplained tiredness, weight changes, poor concentration, or swelling in the neck (goitre) may suggest thyroid problems.
Yes. We assess for hormonal causes of weight problems and provide tailored advice on healthy lifestyle, nutrition, and activity.
It’s a simple hand X-ray that helps estimate a child’s growth potential and whether puberty or hormone changes are happening too early or late.
No. Many children grow normally after reassurance and monitoring. Hormone treatment is only used when there’s a proven deficiency or imbalance.
Yes. Some conditions, like thyroid disease or congenital adrenal hyperplasia, can be inherited. We can offer genetic testing if it’s appropriate.
Most blood tests and scans can be arranged promptly, and we’ll guide you through results and next steps without unnecessary delay.
Your child’s growth, hormone levels, and physical development are regularly assessed to track the progress of puberty. This may include measurements, blood tests, and bone age X-rays to ensure timely intervention if needed.

Our clinicians will carry out a full assessment to ensure an accurate diagnosis and appropriate care.
Is your child growing slowly or unusually short for their age?
Concerns about height, slow growth or poor weight gain can signal hormonal or metabolic issues that need specialist assessment.
Has puberty started too early or seems delayed?
Early signs of puberty in younger children or late onset compared with peers may require paediatric endocrinology evaluation.
Are there symptoms of thyroid imbalance (tiredness, weight change, neck swelling)?
Thyroid problems such as overactive or underactive thyroid can affect energy, growth, weight, and concentration.
Does your child have frequent thirst, urination, or unexplained fatigue?
These could be signs of diabetes or blood sugar regulation issues needing specialist review.
Is your child struggling with weight or metabolism issues?
Difficulty gaining weight, unexplained weight loss, or childhood obesity with hormonal concerns can benefit from endocrine assessment.
Are there unusual symptoms like excessive tiredness or hormonal imbalances?
Excessive thirst, tiredness, adrenal issues or abnormal test results may point to deeper endocrine concerns.
