Knowledge is the best medicine. Our advice on Housecalls is based on short conversation and no physical examination-not the way medicine should be practiced. We encourage you to read more about our topics by going to the library or on the Internet, then make an appointment and really talk with your doctor.

Raging Hormones: Endocrine Disorders

From heartbeat to height, sex-drive to manic-depressive behavior, hormones affect almost every aspect of the body and serve as invaluable messengers, governors of development, and regulators of metabolism.  Today on House Calls, we talk with Dr. Leon-Paul Georges, Chairman of the Department of Internal Medicine at Eastern Virginia Medical School and Director of the Strelitz Diabetes Institutes, about the wide variety of things that can go wrong in the endocrine system and what to do about it.
