Overview
Respiratory diseases affect every part of the respiratory system, leading to lung disease and breathing problems. At Cronus, we diagnose and treat a range of lung conditions and breathing problems. Our respiratory medicine team is passionate about improving the lives of adults living with respiratory diseases by delivering first class treatment and our team includes respiratory specialists, nurses, physiotherapists and scientists working with colleagues throughout our hospitals.
There are many issues beyond good blood sugar control that need to be addressed. Comprehensive care for diabetic patients is provided through our team of diabetologist, nurse educator, dietician, ophthalmologist, podiatrist and physiotherapist. Other than monitoring blood sugars, weight, blood pressure, cholesterol, and adverse effects of drug therapy, we also have a programme to screen the feet, eyes and kidneys for complications of diabetes.
We manage a whole spectrum of endocrine and metabolic diseases. As most endocrine disorders are chronic disorders, we integrate care by facilitating step-down care or through co-management with the referring primary care physicians when appropriate.
