Question 1

How much does an Endocrinologist & Diabetes Specialist cost in Dhaka?

Accepted Answer

In Dhaka, a private chamber consultation with an endocrinologist or diabetes specialist usually costs between 800 and 1,500 BDT for a new patient, while follow-up visits are often lower, around 500 to 800 BDT. Senior professors and specialists at large centres or in Dhaka may charge more. Government and Diabetic Association (BADAS/BIRDEM) clinics offer much cheaper care, though they are busier. Lab tests such as HbA1c, fasting glucose and thyroid (TSH) panels are billed separately.

Question 2

How do I book an appointment, and what should I bring?

Accepted Answer

You can book by calling the chamber, visiting in person, or using an online platform like ChamberBD that shows each doctor's schedule and lets you reserve a serial. Bring any previous prescriptions, your current medicines or insulin, and recent test reports (blood sugar, HbA1c, thyroid, lipid profile). It helps to fast for 8 to 10 hours if blood tests are likely. Also note your symptoms, home glucose readings and any family history of diabetes or thyroid disease so the doctor gets the full picture.

Question 3

Who is the best Endocrinologist & Diabetes Specialist in Dhaka?

Accepted Answer

There is no single best doctor for everyone, the right one depends on your condition. For most diabetes and thyroid care, look for an MBBS doctor with postgraduate training in endocrinology (such as MD Endocrinology or membership/fellowship like MRCP or FCPS) and good experience treating your specific problem. On this page you can compare endocrinologists in Dhaka by qualifications, years of experience, chamber location and consultation fee, then choose one who is convenient and well reviewed. For complex cases, BIRDEM and major medical college hospitals are strong referral centres.

Question 4

Is online or telemedicine consultation available for diabetes and thyroid problems?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Many endocrinologists in Dhaka now offer phone or video (telemedicine) consultations, which work well for follow-ups, reviewing test reports, adjusting diabetes or thyroid medicine doses, and getting an e-prescription without travelling. A first visit or any case needing a physical exam, foot check, or thyroid neck examination is usually better done in person. Look for the telemedicine label on a doctor's profile, and keep your latest reports and current medicine list ready before the call.
