Weight Management
Specialist in
Naas, Kildare

About This Service

Dr Syed Kashif Hussain Kazmi, MRCPI, FRCP, CCT Diabetes & Endocrinology, is a Consultant Endocrinologist and Diabetes Specialist seeing patients at Naas Cardiology & Endocrinology Clinic, Suite 5, Vista Primary Care Clinic, Ballymore Road, Naas, Co. Kildare, W91 E6H2.

Excess weight often has underlying medical and hormonal components that a general practitioner does not always have the time or specialist tools to investigate fully. Dr Kazmi provides comprehensive metabolic assessment as part of a structured weight management approach — looking for treatable causes such as thyroid dysfunction, insulin resistance, PCOS, adrenal conditions or elevated cortisol.

Each consultation includes a thorough clinical history, targeted blood tests where indicated, and a clear evidence-based management plan. Where appropriate, Dr Kazmi can co-ordinate care with your GP, dietitian or other relevant specialists to support a sustainable approach to your health.
