Patient 1:<\/h1>\n

This is a young woman who was admitted to the hospital for surgical removal of a pituitary tumor after being diagnosed with acromegaly. She experienced years of symptoms before the diagnosis was made. She had seen multiple doctors but the diagnosis remained elusive. Acromegaly was finally diagnosed when she saw a naturopath.<\/span><\/p>\n

This patient also has frontal bossing and soft tissue enlargement.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1591996107842{background-color: #dcd9dd !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text]
