Endocrinology
The endocrinology department treats diseases of hormone-releasing glands: these glands may produce too much or too little hormone, or the glands may have changed shape (for example, nodules on the gland). A hormone is a substance released to the blood by a gland that affects the functioning of an organ somewhere in the body. The glands that make these hormones are the pancreas (pancreas), thyroid, adrenal, pituitary, parathyroid and gonads.

Head and neck centre
The head and neck centre is a fusion of two medical disciplines into one department: nose, throat and ear (ENT), facial and neck surgery and oral, maxillofacial surgery.
In this way, in one multidisciplinary centre, we can help people with all possible problems in the head and neck area. As a result, we can offer a much broader spectrum of care, but above all we can include the patient in one integrated care process. This is an advantage for patients, who often find themselves caught between these two disciplines.

Falls Clinic
The falls clinic of Sint-Trudo Hospital focuses on patients with walking and/or balance disorders and recurrent falls. A multidisciplinary team of physiotherapists, occupational therapists, geriatricians and nurses will help you with a screening and give you tailored advice to avoid falls to the maximum.
About 30% of people over the age of 65 fall once a year. Due to the aging of the population, the number of fall incidents is increasing. Direct injuries from a fall include bone fractures, soft tissue injuries and cerebral disorders. In addition, there are the psychological consequences of a fall, where the fear of another fall can undermine self-reliance. Both aspects can jeopardize independent functioning in the home situation.
