A cardiologist provides medical care and treatment for a person who has been diagnosed with heart disease or a heart-related abnormality. Cardiologists specialize in the diagnosis or treatment of disease and conditions related to the cardiovascular system. Cardiologists help treat conditions such as a abnormal heart rhythm, heart failure, heart attack or provide advice on heart surgery. Cardiologists also work with the patient's primary-care doctors to help patients maintain a healthy life.
Endocrinologists are doctors trained to work with patients having hormone-related diseases. These doctors are trained to diagnose and manage diseases that affect the glands (adrenal glands, hypothalamus, ovaries and testicles, pancreas, parathyroid, pineal, pituitary, thymus, and thyroid) and the hormones. The endocrinologist helps in restoring hormone balance in the impacted gland. As part of their work, endocrinologists commonly treat diabetes, osteoporosis, menopause, metabolic disorders, thyroid diseases, some cancers (including thyroid cancer, pituitary tumor, parathyroid cancer, and adrenocortical carcinoma), short stature, and infertility.
