See all fees →The approach
Dr Spiliotis is an NHS consultant and an honorary researcher at the University of Oxford. He reads results together, in the context of your history, and decides which investigations are needed and when. After each appointment you receive a written summary and, with your consent, so does your GP.
Why this practice. “I built this practice around time: time to listen, and time to read your results as a whole rather than as a list of numbers. I will tell you honestly what your tests show and what they do not.”

Peer-reviewed publications
Good endocrinology starts with listening. Tests follow, chosen for the question being asked.
His research has focused on the hormones that control blood glucose, with publications in international peer-reviewed journals.
Lead services
Alongside general endocrine care, Dr Spiliotis has a particular interest in diabetes of all types and in the medical management of obesity.
Type 2 diabetes that is proving hard to control; type 1 diabetes, including insulin adjustment and advice on continuous glucose monitoring and hybrid closed-loop ("artificial pancreas") systems; and diabetes that does not fit either label, where the type itself may need to be established.
Medical assessment of weight, including hormonal and metabolic factors where relevant, and a plan agreed with you. There is a particular interest in people with type 1 diabetes, for whom weight, insulin doses and the risk of hypoglycaemia need to be considered together.

Areas of practice
Hormones work in feedback loops that keep one another in check, and many endocrine problems arise when one of those loops is disturbed.
Under- or over-active thyroid, nodules and goitre, autoimmune thyroid disease, and borderline results.
Type 2 and type 1 diabetes, and the types that fit neither, including MODY and LADA, with medication review, insulin adjustment and advice on CGM and closed-loop systems.
Medical assessment of weight, including hormonal and metabolic factors, and a plan agreed with you, including for people with type 1 diabetes.
Irregular cycles, androgen excess, and the insulin-resistance side of PCOS / PMOS.
Cortisol and other hormone disorders, and abnormal findings on scans.
High or low calcium, parathyroid abnormalities, and recurrent kidney stones.
Assessment of suspected low testosterone, including the underlying cause.
Many symptoms can have hormonal and non-hormonal causes. A first consultation considers whether a hormonal cause is likely.
