Hillsboro native comes home to practice medicine
A native of Hillsboro, Kan., Herbel returned home to rejoin her friends and family members in the area. She brings a wide-spectrum of experience to NMC, having practiced as a paramedic and a registered nurse before attending medical school, and subsequently practicing as both an endocrinologist in private practice and most recently as a hospitalist in Denver, Colorado.

Endocrinologists treat a variety of endocrine conditions ranging from diabetes to problems with pituitary, thyroid, parathryroid, adrenals, ovaries, testes and pregnancy-related endocrine problems.

Herbel cares for adults and adolescents generally over the age of 18, although she will accept younger patients on a case-by-case basis when appropriate. She is one of the endocrinologists practicing in Kansas who uses the insulin pump in both acute and ambulatory care.

Herbel is accepting new patients. Her office phone number is (316) 283-7200.
