About Us

The Department of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism at Christian Medical College (CMC), Vellore is one of India’s well-known centres for the treatment and management of diabetes and other endocrine disorders. Endocrine services at CMC Vellore began in 1985 as an Endocrine Clinic under the Department of Medicine. Due to its growth and expanding patient needs, it was established as an independent department in 1995. The department provides specialised care to nearly 90,000 patients annually from across India and neighbouring Asian countries. Outpatient clinics handle large patient volumes, including general endocrinology clinics and dedicated diabetes clinics, ensuring comprehensive patient care.

Apart from clinical services, the department actively contributes to medical education and research. It introduced one of South India’s earliest super-speciality training programs in endocrinology, which later developed into a DM Endocrinology program. The department also offers fellowships in diabetes, training for healthcare professionals, and programs for diabetes educators and counsellors. Research is a major focus area, covering diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, thyroid and pituitary disorders, along with advanced genetic screening using modern laboratory technologies.

The department is also involved in community outreach programs, promoting awareness about diabetes prevention, obesity management and bone health through public campaigns and educational initiatives. With a dedicated multidisciplinary team, advanced facilities, and strong academic and research contributions, the Endocrinology Department at CMC Vellore continues to provide high-quality patient care and plays a significant role in improving endocrine healthcare in India and beyond.
