Hypoglycemia Program Expertise and Support
National Leaders in Hypoglycemia Care
Cincinnati Children's is the only dedicated hypoglycemia program in the Midwest. Our specialists have advanced training in diagnosing and treating rare causes of low blood sugar.
We are one of only three programs in the United States and one of eight worldwide focused on comprehensive hypoglycemia care.
Coordinated Care From Many Specialists
Our team-based care approach brings together endocrinologists, dietitians, genetics specialists, surgeons, radiologists, anesthesiologists and other experts.
This coordinated model helps families receive one unified plan while reducing unnecessary visits and confusion.
Personalized Care for Every Child
No two children experience hypoglycemia the same way. We create individualized treatment plans based on your child's diagnosis, symptoms and family needs.
Our team provides medical therapies, nutritional support, fasting studies, advanced imaging and surgery when needed.
Dedicated Support Throughout Treatment
Families work closely with a dedicated nurse coordinator who serves as a trusted point of contact.
The coordinator helps schedule appointments, arrange fasting studies, provide education and teach families how to use glucose monitoring tools and emergency medications.
Expert Care Beyond Cincinnati
We provide second opinions and telehealth visits for families and physicians across the U.S.
Children and families can access specialized care without always traveling long distances. We also partner with pediatricians, endocrinologists and neonatologists to support care close to home.
Second Opinions
What if my child has already been evaluated somewhere else?
Our specialists provide expert second opinions for families seeking additional answers or treatment options. We also consult with physicians caring for children with complex hypoglycemia and hyperinsulinism.
