Frequently asked questions
- Do I need an endocrinologist for type 2 diabetes?
- Many people are managed by primary care; a referral helps when targets are hard to reach or insulin is needed.
- Are thyroid nodules cancer?
- The large majority are benign. An ultrasound and sometimes a needle biopsy determine whether any follow-up is needed.
