An endocrinology consultation at LPHG assesses hormone-related conditions affecting the thyroid, adrenal glands, pituitary, bones and metabolism. It costs £250 and needs no GP referral. A consultant endocrinologist reviews your symptoms, history and any results, arranges relevant tests, and gives you a clear diagnosis and management plan, usually within one appointment.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a GP referral to see an endocrinologist?
No. You can book an endocrinology consultation directly. If you need onward tests or treatment, the consultant will arrange them for you.
What conditions does an endocrinologist treat?
Endocrinologists manage hormone-related conditions, including thyroid disease, diabetes, adrenal and pituitary disorders, PCOS, osteoporosis and problems with growth or metabolism.
Will I need blood tests?
Often, yes. Hormone problems are usually confirmed with blood tests. The consultant will explain which tests you need and arrange them, then review the results with you.
Can I bring my previous results?
Yes, and it helps. Recent blood tests, scans or letters give the consultant useful background and can avoid repeating tests unnecessarily.
How soon will I have a plan?
In most cases you leave with a clear plan. If further tests are needed first, the consultant discusses the likely diagnosis and the next steps.
