Diabetes services are offered by Duke’s Division of Endocrinology, Metabolism and Nutrition, which was ranked 21st in the nation for digestive health care by the 2008 America’s Best Hospitals edition of U.S.News & World Report.

Members of our division provide consultative care through the VA Consult Service and the Duke Consult Service. In addition, we service many outpatient clinics including two VA clinics, the Duke Endocrine Clinic, the Structure House, and several outreach clinics throughout North Carolina.

In addition to providing the best clinical care, the division is also home to a number of clinical, basic science, and translational investigators who direct studies in a variety of areas.

Areas of study include mechanisms of insulin action and insulin resistance, treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, polycystic ovarian syndrome, osteoporosis, and inherited and acquired hypophosphatemic bone disease.
