EndoMD Health Launches in Virginia to Help Speed Pediatric Endocrine Care
NEWS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
September 24, 2024
RICHMOND, Virginia – EndoMD Health, the nation’s first 100% virtual pediatric endocrinology practice, proudly announces the launch of its telehealth platform that combines medicine with lifestyle and emotional support to help kids with endocrine disorders thrive.
With only 2 pediatric endocrinologists per 100,000 children, families often endure long wait times and travel great distances to receive care. EndoMD Health reduces these barriers by offering children with growth, weight, and hormonal concerns, fast and convenient access to board-certified specialists.
Dr. Ladan Davallow, pediatric endocrinologist at EndoMD Health, highlighted the urgent need for accessible care: “The demand for pediatric endocrinology services is surging as the rates of childhood obesity and type 2 diabetes continue to climb. We help children quickly and effectively get the specialized care they need.” She added, “Our membership program is one of a kind – our team of specialists and coaches combine each child’s medical needs with nutritional, lifestyle and emotional support to get to the root cause of the child’s hormone condition and help them feel healthier and happier.”
According to the CDC, 20% of U.S. children aged 2-19 are now affected by obesity. A 2023 study published in Diabetes Care further predicts that, without intervention, type 2 diabetes among children could increase by as much as 700% by 2060. This escalation underscores the need for quick, accessible pediatric care.
EndoMD Health offers both fee-for-service consults and three specialized membership plans - Healthy Weight, Healthy Growth and Healthy Thyroid - each tailored to help families stay committed to achieving their health goals.
Families in Virginia can now access these services and can sign up online for three free live webinars on kids' healthy weight, growth, and thyroid management. Dr. Davallow will be giving these webinars on Oct 7, 8, and 9 at 8:30pm EST.
