What's the difference between an endocrinologist and an ent doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The simple answer: Endocrinologist evaluates and medically treats conditions involving the endocrine glands. Otolaryngologist (ENT) crosses into this territory because certain endocrine glands are in the head and neck region. Ent may evaluate and diagnose certain endocrine disorders. Ent may operate on these glands.
