Katherine Velez, MD, is a pediatric endocrinologist who treats infants, children, and teens. Dr. Velez has over 20 years of experience as a physician. Initially starting as a general pediatrician, she moved on to subspecialty training and has now worked in the field of pediatric endocrinology for over 13 years. Whether the diagnosis is an endocrine disorder or not, Dr. Velez strives to be as thorough as she can in order to best help every child. She strongly advocates for fair time with all of her patients and finds it imperative to have an efficient process to achieve her goal. What sets Dr. Velez’s practice apart is her dedicated in-office team who has a singular focus of providing the best care possible. She and her entire staff all give it the same effort, and everyone at her practice knows all the patients and their needs by heart. Her relatively small office and long-term staff create a very personal approach to health care. Dr. Velez focuses on the care of underproduction and overproduction of hormones in children. Typically, her patients will be guided and referred to her by their pediatricians if there is an issue that can be due to a hormonal/endocrine condition. Some of the conditions she treats include: Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, short stature, precocious or delayed puberty, irregular periods, hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism, low or excess cortisol levels, calcium regulation disorders, water regulation disorders, and low glucose. She’s especially interested in Type 1 diabetes and the technology that is rapidly developing to improve the quality of life for diabetic patients. Dr. Velez speaks English and Spanish. While not treating patients, she enjoys going to painting classes.
