The GP and the Endocrine Glands: Clinician Manual by Louis L. Rubel, General Practitioner with revisions by Jeremy Kaslow, MD, FACP, FACAI

The objective in these pages is to bring to the attention of the medical practitioner the relationship that exists between endocrine dysfunction and many conditions, frequently encountered in daily practice and often consider mental or emotional aberration. There is generally a firm physiological basis for these symptoms, many of which are discussed in the following chapters, together with a satisfactory rationale of therapy which has in my practice proved successful-the definition of success being in this case the return of the patient’s physiology to a normal, symptom-free existence.
