Physician Profile

Carl D. Malchoff, M.D., Ph.D.

Dr. Carl Malchoff received his undergraduate degree from Cornell University, his M.D. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Rochester and his postgraduate training in Internal Medicine and in Endocrinology and Metabolism at The University of Virginia.

Dr. Malchoff’s primary clinical interest is in the field of endocrine neoplasia. Upon his arrival at the University of Connecticut Health Center in 1985, Dr. Malchoff recognized that endocrine neoplasia patients were underserved. Only rare clinicians have expertise and experience across the entire range of benign and malignant endocrine tumors. Since 1985, he has persistently and successfully encouraged other clinicians in different specialties to collaborate with him and develop specialized clinical services for the care of endocrine neoplasia patients. Review of his curriculum vitae indicates that Dr. Malchoff is a national leader in the understanding and care of adrenal and thyroid disorders, with over 40 peer reviewed manuscripts, over 30 book chapters, and recognition by Best Doctors, Inc.

In 2001, the Endocrine Neoplasia Program was established as an official clinical program within the Neag Comprehensive Cancer Center at the Health Center. It remains the only comprehensive Endocrine Neoplasia Program of its kind in Connecticut, and is positioned to serve the unique needs of its patients.
