Maria E. Craig is an endocrinologist based in Sydney, NSW, Australia.
She looks after people with hormone-related health issues. That can mean diabetes across different life stages, from kids and teens to adults. She also helps when blood sugar is too high or too low, and when sudden problems like diabetic ketoacidosis show up.
For many patients, the focus is day-to-day care and long-term support. In many cases, this includes managing diabetes complications such as diabetic retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy, and diabetic neuropathy. She also works with families when diabetes shows up around pregnancy, including gestational diabetes.
Hormone and metabolism concerns are not only about sugar. Maria also treats conditions linked to glands and body balance, like thyroid problems (including congenital hypothyroidism) and adrenal conditions such as congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Some patients come with issues that affect growth and development, like delayed growth, infant hyperglycaemia, or concerns with weight, including obesity in children and obesity in general.
At times, the care needs to be very specific, especially for rarer conditions. Maria works with people who have problems such as congenital hyperinsulinism and low blood sugar, and she also supports cases like malabsorption and vitamin D deficiency. She may be involved in care for conditions that can affect the gut and nutrition, including coeliac disease and Prader-Willi syndrome.
She also treats a range of other endocrine-related health needs. These can include congenital issues like Deafness Hypogonadism Syndrome and intersex variations, as well as conditions such as Wilson disease. In some patients, hormone problems can overlap with other health challenges, including celiac disease, cystic fibrosis, and serious infections that affect overall health.
Education and formal work history details aren’t listed in the information available here, so there is no extra background to share at this stage. Research or clinical trial involvement also isn’t detailed. What is clear is that Maria’s practice covers a wide set of hormone and diabetes conditions, with a practical focus on getting things under control and keeping people well.
