Pembroke Road, Pembroke Pines, FL 33025

Dr. Emilio Castaneda practices adult endocrinology in Pembroke Pines, FL.

"It took 2 months to see an endocrinologist because of our current healthcare in America. I picked someone from my plan named Dr. Emilio Castaneda. My appointment is for 930am and I get to the office at 9am. At 915 am; I get to fill out the paperwork and not call in till 945am. I am waiting in the room and Tech takes my Blood Pressure. Then about 15 minutes Dr walks in: No Greeting by Dr and who he is Does not ask about my history I say who am am and offer my history He seems disinterested and couldn't care less about me He is saying that I should take metformin 1000mg per day. I told him that it hurt my stomach and he said the ER does not.. And gives me why metformin is a benefit in 5 reasons. Typical reply by a Dr. I am on insulin and he does not give me a plan on how to reduce my insulin; no schedule. He couldn't care less Whisk me out the door in 2-3 minutes Brought to the desk and I have to pay my co-payment and then hands me my paper and does not tell me I need blood work and my appointment is in a month. This Dr is incompetent and the worst Dr I have ever seen in my life. I am a first time patient and he treated me less than human. You need to ask me about my history. He was so disinterested in my visit and did not advise me if there were any other options. I will be disputing the charges and blogging him and reporting him to the Florida Board of medicine."

What is Endocrinology?

Endocrinology is a medical specialty that deals with glands and hormones. Hormones are substances that act like chemical messengers between parts of the body. They are produced by glands, and travel in the bloodstream throughout the body where they act on different organs and cells to affect many different functions of life. Hormones control our appetite, growth, reproduction, and energy. When there is too little or too much of a hormone, an endocrinologist can help restore the balance.

Endocrinology problems are sometimes difficult and complex because hormones travel throughout the body and can affect more than one system. A single, simple imbalance can produce multiple, very different symptoms. Just a few of the diverse diseases treated by an endocrinologist include:

Diabetes (where insulin is not produced in the body or is not working well, and blood sugar levels rise, which damages tissues)
Hypothyroidism (where thyroid hormones are not produced well, reducing cell metabolism and energy)
Precocious Puberty (where reproductive hormones are produced too early in a child's life)
Gigantism (where growth hormones are overproduced, leading to unusual size)

Endocrinology can contain subspecialties where physicians focus their care on specific groups of patients. For example, some endocrinologists are diabetic endocrinologists who know specifically how to care for diabetics' particular needs in eye care, circulation, and foot care. Pediatric endocrinologists treat children. Whatever their subspecialty, all endocrinologists have the same goal: restoring balance when the body's messaging system is not working correctly.
