Endocrine & Metabolic in Fairfax, South Riding, Merrifield, & Tysons, VA

Your endocrine system is a complex network of glands that produce and regulate hormones—chemical messengers that control nearly every function in your body. From metabolism and energy levels to mood, growth, and reproductive health, hormones play a vital role in maintaining balance. When this system is disrupted, endocrine and metabolic disorders can develop, leading to conditions like diabetes, thyroid dysfunction, hormonal imbalances, and bone health issues.

At Prima Medicine in Fairfax, South Riding, Merrifield, and Tysons, Virginia, Dr. Chethana Rao and her team specialize in diagnosing and managing endocrine and metabolic conditions with personalized, evidence-based care. As a Washingtonian magazine Top Doc, Dr. Rao combines clinical expertise with a patient-centered approach to help you regain balance and improve your overall wellness.

Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects how your body processes blood sugar (glucose). Whether you have Type 1, Type 2, or prediabetes, effective management is essential to prevent complications like heart disease, nerve damage, and vision problems. Our team provides diabetes care, including blood sugar monitoring, medication management, and lifestyle counseling to help you live well.

Hyperthyroidism occurs when your thyroid gland produces too much thyroid hormone, speeding up your metabolism and causing symptoms like weight loss, rapid heartbeat, anxiety, and fatigue. Early diagnosis and treatment are key to preventing serious complications. We offer thorough evaluation and treatment plans to restore thyroid balance.

Your adrenal glands produce essential hormones that regulate stress response, blood pressure, metabolism, and immune function. Disorders such as Addison’s disease or Cushing’s syndrome can disrupt this delicate balance, leading to fatigue, weight changes, and other health concerns. We provide expert diagnosis and ongoing management to support adrenal health.

Hormonal imbalances affecting reproductive health can impact both men and women, causing irregular periods, fertility issues, low libido, and more. Conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), menopause symptoms, and low testosterone require specialized care
