Our pediatric endocrinologists, diabetes specialists, dietitians and other providers care for the spectrum of endocrine conditions affecting babies to young adults.

We diagnose, treat and manage growth problems, puberty issues, diabetes and nutrition concerns with expertise and compassion. Our children’s diabetes program, part of Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital, works with hundreds of children and their families each year, teaching crucial self-care behaviors.

Our pediatric endocrinology specialists are experts who studied and worked at major children’s hospitals before moving to the Lehigh Valley region. We get to know you and your child on a personal level, fostering an ongoing relationship built on trust that lasts a lifetime.

The conditions we treat include:

  • Type 1 and type 2 diabetes, as well as diabetes-related complications such as hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
  • Adrenal, pituitary and thyroid gland disorders, such as Cushing’s syndrome
  • Growth problems caused by nutrition imbalances, genetic disorders or other causes
  • Obesity

You can expect highly trained professionals, personalized care plans, education, support and a comprehensive diabetes program. Convenient appointments are available, so you won’t have to travel away from home to get for your child the care he or she needs. And if your child ever needs to be hospitalized, you can continue to stay close to home because of our relationship with Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital.

LVPG Pediatric Endocrinology–Pennsburg is in the Health Center at Pennsburg and is a practice of Lehigh Valley Physician Group. To make an appointment, call 888-402-LVHN (5846).

Your children mean the world to you.

At Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital, we want to help you take the very best care of them.
