Endocrinologist Summary:
An Endocrinologist is a physician who specializes in diagnosing and treating conditions that are related to the endocrine system. They are concerned with the glands and hormone production. They work to correct problems stemming from over and under production of hormones or the body's inability to properly produce hormones.

Education and Training: An endocrinologist must have completed 4 years of medical school, a 3 to 4 year residency or internship in internal medicine, and another 2 to 3 years in the endocrinology field. Once they have taken and passed a state exam, they can be a certified endocrinologist.
