About Dr. Panagiota Andreopoulou
Dr. Panagiota Andreopoulou is a board-certified endocrinologist practicing in New York City. She works in the Division of Endocrinology at Weill Cornell Medicine and serves as an Assistant Professor of Clinical Medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College.
Her practice covers a broad range of hormonal and metabolic disorders, with a particular focus on osteoporosis, metabolic bone disease, abnormal calcium and phosphate levels, and parathyroid disorders. She also evaluates thyroid, adrenal and pituitary diseases and patients with complicated type 2 diabetes.
Dr. Andreopoulou is also a certified clinical densitometrist, reflecting additional expertise in interpreting bone mineral density studies used when assessing osteoporosis and fracture risk.

Osteoporosis can weaken bones without obvious early symptoms and increase the risk of fractures. The NIAMS osteoporosis guide explains established approaches to diagnosis, prevention and treatment.
Parathyroid disorders can also affect calcium levels and bone health. The NIDDK guide to primary hyperparathyroidism explains how excess parathyroid hormone can contribute to high blood calcium, bone thinning and kidney stones.
Endocrinology and Patient Care Approach
Endocrine disorders often involve hormones that influence several organs at once. Symptoms such as fatigue, bone loss, abnormal calcium levels, weight changes or menstrual changes may therefore require laboratory testing and careful interpretation rather than treatment based on symptoms alone.
Dr. Andreopoulou describes her approach as patient-centered, with an emphasis on shared decision-making and clear communication. Her work in metabolic bone disease may involve bone-density testing, laboratory assessment of calcium, phosphate, vitamin D and parathyroid hormone, and evaluation for secondary causes of bone loss.
Treatment varies according to the diagnosis. Osteoporosis care may involve nutrition, exercise, fall prevention and medication when appropriate, while parathyroid, thyroid or pituitary disorders may require different medical or surgical pathways.
Education and Credentials
Dr. Andreopoulou earned her MD from the University of Athens Faculty of Medicine in Greece in 2001.
