AUGUST 2013
Founded Capital Endocrine & Diabetes
After working for several clinics and labs across the U.S., Dr. Venkatesh Segu set out to start a different medical practice in Austin, TX by prioritizing patient wellbeing through longer, dedicated appointments and personalized treatment plans.

Humble Beginnings for the Practice
Dr. Segu saw his first patient in Austin with a small team of one medical assistant and one receptionist.

JUNE 2020
Moved into a Brand New Office
Capital Endocrine & Diabetes has served over 8,500 patients and needed more space to keep up with anticipated growth in Austin. We moved across the street to a new medical facility on Medical Pkwy in Cedar Park, TX. With more space, we are serving even more patients in the Austin area every day.
SEPTEMBER 2021
Added Jenny Posey, MSN, APRN, AGCNS-BC to the Team
Capital Endocrine & Diabetes has served over 10,000 patients and needed to add another provider to meet increasing demand.
WHY WE STARTED
Placing patients' well being first is Captial Endocine & Diabetes' guiding principle. I have worked all over the country and witnessed how patients were not given enough time to explain their challenges and understand their medical situation during appointments. At Capital Endocrine & Diabetes we provide new patients an unmatched 45 minute consultation with undivided attention of our doctors. This gives our medical professionals ample time to understand each situation and devise the best medical plan for the patient.
In addition, our practice emphasizes transparency with patients. Transparency and trust are key pillars to healthcare that I found lacking in places I had worked previously. By openly communicating with patients and keeping them aware of viable medical options, we work as an effective team to strategize improving their health.
Above all else, I founded this practice because we need more Endocrinologists. ~10.5% of the US population has diabetes and ~40% of adults are struggling with obesity. Capital Endocrine & Diabetes is dedeciated to help more of such patients in the greater Austin area.
