The pathologies you may encounter are:
Thyroid diseases (hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, thyroid nodule, goiter, cancer)

Adrenal diseases (Cushing's syndrome, adrenal insufficiency, adrenal tumors)
Ovarian and testicular diseases (hirsutism, gynecomastia, polycystic ovary syndrome, hypogonadism, infertility)
Hypogonadism (Turner syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome, polycystic ovary syndrome, male or female infertility, menopause)
Gender incongruence
You assist the doctor in the treatment of thyroid nodules by radiofrequency and alcoholization (treatment under US, requiring rigor, technique and asepsis).
You also support people undergoing gender transition in their journey.
You may also be required to work in the infectiology unit which welcomes patients living with HIV, for regular follow-up and/or injections of long-acting treatment.
As part of a mission of general interest and prevention, this unit is also a reference center for the implementation of prophylactic treatments against HIV (prep, Pep). It has an anonymous STI testing center where prevention messages and sexual health advice are provided. This activity is complementary to the activity in endocrinology, at a rate of one day per week.

You are motivated to acquire the specific knowledge related to the pathologies managed in the service in order to guarantee optimal care for patients.
You demonstrate excellent interpersonal skills, with a keen sense of welcome, listening, non-judgment, empathy, benevolence and calmness.

You strictly apply protocols relating to dynamic tests to guarantee diagnostic reliability.
You demonstrate capacities for analysis, synthesis and adaptation in the face of unforeseen situations, while knowing how to prioritize your activities and organize your work efficiently.
