Welcome to Penn State Hershey Pediatric Endocrinology
Penn State Hershey Pediatric Endocrinology offers clinical services to infants, children and teenagers with hormone disorders, including diabetes, thyroid, growth, puberty, sex development, adrenal, bone, and pituitary gland. The team is comprised of five experienced board-certified physicians, three diabetes nurse educators, two endocrine nurses, and three dietitians. Our mission is to provide state-of-the-art care to patients, educate medical students and residents, and conduct research.
Our program serves 800 children with diabetes and offers an active insulin pump program. We provide comprehensive education to children with newly diagnosed diabetes in our office to avoid admission if possible. We work with, and offer education to, school nurses for their care of students. Supported by Children’s Miracle Network, scholarships are available for diabetes camps.
Our clinics are located at Penn State Hershey Medical Center and Penn State Hershey Medical Group - Camp Hill, Reading and York. We can be reached at 717-531-4751.
Thank you for making it all possible! Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital
