Mhairi S. Marshall is an Endocrinologist based in Woolloongabba, in Brisbane, QLD. The practice address is 37 Kent St, Woolloongabba, QLD 4102. If you’ve been sent along for hormone or metabolism concerns, that’s where she can help people make sense of what’s going on and what to do next.
Endocrinology covers a lot of different body systems, so appointments can look different from person to person. In many cases, patients are dealing with hormone gland issues such as adrenal problems, parathyroid conditions, and related calcium balance problems. Some people are referred for things like adrenal tumours or pheochromocytoma, while others come in because of ongoing changes with blood sugar, including maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY).
There are also times when referrals involve rare genetic and growth-related conditions. These can include syndromes that affect bones, joints, skin, or how the body forms and maintains tissues. Some examples seen in endocrinology care include Marfan syndrome, osteogenesis imperfecta, and different forms of spondylodysplasia. At times, this care overlaps with bone health and hormone signals, so it’s not always just one simple answer.
Over time, Mhairi has built experience looking after adults and children with complex, long-term health issues. That often means listening closely, checking patterns across tests, and working out the best treatment path with the rest of the care team. It can be a slow process, especially for conditions that are not common, but good plans are usually made step by step.
Training-wise, her work is based on medical education followed by specialist endocrine training, with a strong focus on how glands and hormones affect everyday health. She also stays up to date with new guidance in endocrinology, so management reflects current best practice. For people wondering about clinical trials, these are considered case-by-case, depending on the condition and what may be suitable through local options.
If you’re not sure whether you fit the right kind of referral, it can still be worth checking. Hormone-related symptoms can be wide-ranging, and sometimes a general pattern only becomes clear after proper review and the right tests.
