Dr. Karen Kamphausen is a consultant endocrinologist with over 20 years of clinical and diagnostic experience, including 15 years as a board-certified specialist. She holds dual qualifications in Internal Medicine and Endocrinology & Diabetology from leading German medical centres. Her training at University Medical Centre Hamburg-Eppendorf encompassed broad internal medicine (including gastroenterology, hepatology, oncology, and intensive care) before specialising in complex endocrine disorders. At Endokrinologikum Hamburg, she led hormonal testing for external practices and trained medical students and specialist physicians.
Dr. Kamphausen manages the full spectrum of endocrine and metabolic conditions: thyroid disease (including cancer diagnosis and autoimmune disorders), pituitary tumours and hormone imbalances, adrenal insufficiency and Cushing's syndrome, parathyroid and bone metabolism disorders, and diabetes (type 1, type 2, and gestational). She also specialises in fertility-related endocrine problems, PCOS, obesity medicine, and metabolic syndrome. Her approach combines advanced hormonal testing, dynamic endocrine procedures, and imaging evaluation with individualised, long-term care.
She works collaboratively with neurosurgeons, radiologists, and other specialists to provide coordinated treatment. Dr. Kamphausen is committed to personalised medicine and uses modern technologies—such as continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps for diabetes—alongside preventive strategies and digital health solutions.
Special interests: complex pituitary, adrenal, and thyroid disorders, obesity medicine, fertility and pregnancy-related endocrine conditions, insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome, preventive and personalised medicine.
