Associated Endocrinologists

What Associated Endocrinologists does

Associated Endocrinologists, P.C. is a private, physician-owned endocrinology practice founded in 1984 and headquartered in Farmington Hills, Michigan, operating as a Professional Corporation with no disclosed parent company or external investors. The practice specializes in disorders of the thyroid, parathyroid, pituitary, adrenal glands, osteoporosis, and diabetes, and self-describes as one of the largest and highest-volume endocrine practices in the Midwest, staffed by 12 clinical providers — including 8 board-certified endocrinologists, 2 nurse practitioners, and a registered dietitian/certified diabetes care and education specialist — all with fellowship training from top-tier institutions (University of Michigan, Northwestern, Wayne State, Henry Ford, University of Illinois, Eastern Virginia Medical School).

The practice delivers a comprehensive, on-site service portfolio that includes thyroid/neck ultrasound, ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration biopsies, thyroid radiofrequency ablation (RFA) — introduced as one of the first such programs in Michigan — professional and personal continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) with multi-vendor device support (Dexcom, Medtronic, Tandem, Omnipod, Freestyle Libre), instant HbA1c and full laboratory services, nuclear medicine studies performed under Beaumont/Corewell Health certification, diabetes education, and clinical trial enrollment. The technology architecture is conventional clinical hardware integrated with regional health system patient portals (Beaumont Chart, Corewell Health MyChart) rather than a proprietary software platform.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through insurance-based professional services billing for office visits, procedures, and diagnostic testing across three office locations (Farmington Hills, Clarkston, and Novi, with Novi added in 2024). The go-to-market motion is consultative and B2C, with patient acquisition driven by primary care physician referrals, self-referrals, telehealth visits, and SEO-oriented educational content on thyroid and endocrine conditions. The practice maintains no disclosed external funding, no M&A activity, and no reported revenue figures, consistent with its status as a long-standing independent specialty group serving Southeast Michigan.

Product overview

Associated Endocrinologists is a consultative endocrinology practice offering a comprehensive portfolio of diagnostic and treatment services for thyroid disorders, diabetes, and other endocrine conditions.

Emerging players

• Privia Health: Privia Health is a physician-enablement platform that includes multi-specialty groups with endocrinology offerings. It represents the multi-site, technology-enabled independent practice model that an ambulatory endocrinology group like Associated Endocrinologists could either join or compete against.
• One Medical (now Amazon One Medical): Primary-care-focused platform that includes endocrinology support and chronic disease management. Comparable as a multi-site technology-enabled practice model that absorbs endocrinology referrals, though it is broader than a pure endocrinology group.

Broad incumbents

• Cleveland Clinic Endocrinology: Cleveland Clinic's Endocrinology & Metabolism Institute is a high-volume specialty center offering the full spectrum of thyroid RFA, ultrasound-guided biopsy, nuclear medicine, and diabetes CGM services — the same procedural and clinical mix that defines Associated Endocrinologists, but at national scale.
• Mayo Clinic Endocrinology: Mayo Clinic's Division of Endocrinology provides comprehensive thyroid, diabetes, adrenal, and pituitary services including advanced procedural offerings. It is a benchmark large-incumbent endocrinology platform comparable in service breadth though not regional.
• Johns Hopkins Endocrinology: Johns Hopkins Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism is an academic referral center delivering the full range of endocrine services including thyroid nodules, RFA, and complex diabetes. It is comparable in clinical scope, though primarily serves the mid-Atlantic rather than the Midwest.
• University of Michigan Health Endocrinology: Michigan Medicine's Division of Metabolism, Endocrinology & Diabetes is a major academic endocrinology referral center drawing complex thyroid, adrenal, and pituitary cases from across the state, including the Southeast Michigan region served by Associated Endocrinologists.

Regional players

• Corewell Health Endocrinology (formerly Beaumont): Corewell Health, the successor to Beaumont Health, runs endocrinology specialty clinics across Metro Detroit and is the practice's nuclear-medicine certification partner as well as a competitor for employed-physician referrals in the same geography.
• Henry Ford Endocrinology: Henry Ford Health System operates a large employed endocrinology group in Southeast Michigan, including in Detroit and surrounding suburbs. It directly competes with Associated Endocrinologists for PCP referrals in the same regional catchment.

Direct peers

• Diabetes & Endocrine Associates (DEA): Independent multi-physician endocrinology specialty practice offering diabetes management, thyroid care, and in-house diagnostics. Direct peer in structure — independent, multi-site, physician-owned endocrinology group with comparable service lines.
• Thyroid & Endocrine Center of Florida: Independent endocrinology specialty practice focused heavily on thyroid disease including RFA and ultrasound-guided biopsy. Direct peer because it offers the same procedural and thyroid-focused endocrinology services to patients outside of Michigan.
