What does a diabetologist do?

What is the difference between a diabetologist and an endocrinologist?

A diabetologist specialises exclusively in the management of diabetes. An endocrinologist, on the other hand, treats a broader range of hormonal disorders, including diabetes, thyroid issues, and adrenal and pituitary gland disorders

Which doctor is best for diabetes?

An endocrinologist or a diabetologist is the best doctor for managing diabetes. In less severe cases, a general physician with experience in managing diabetes may also provide effective care.
