The Division of Endocrinology at the Nemours Children’s Clinic, Orlando provides diagnostic and therapeutic services to infants, children, and teens with type 1 and type 2 diabetes (as well as diabetes-related conditions and other hormone and growth disorders).

Our team of caregivers includes board-certified pediatric endocrinologists, dedicated nurses, nurse practitioners, a registered dietitian, certified diabetes educators, licensed clinical social workers, and medical assistants. To help us give your child with diabetes the very best care, our endocrine testing center offers a full range of diagnostic services.

We’re also proud to say that our Pediatric Diabetes Education Program is one of the few in Florida certified by the American Diabetes Association (ADA). In 2007, we also received the coveted Education Program Recognition certification from the ADA – making us the first pediatric program in Central Florida to have achieved such an award and only the second pediatric-specific program in the entire state.

And we participate in several clinical trials looking at how to prevent diabetes. Our involvement in clinical research gives our patients access to the latest innovations in the field of diabetes care.

Children who need to be hospitalized are currently admitted to Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children. However, in 2012 kids will be able to stay at the new Nemours Children’s Hospital in Lake Nona’s “medical city.” The 620,000-square-foot children’s hospital will serve as the core of a 60-acre pediatric health campus featuring a children’s clinic, emergency department, diagnostic and ambulatory programs, as well as education and research centers.
