Overview

I specialize in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes and often prescribe insulin pumps and glucose sensors. I also specialize in thyroid disorders and perform a lot of thyroid biopsies. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two daughters, jogging, and hiking with my family and our dogs. I am also a Notre Dame Football fan and watch games whenever possible in the fall.

Dr. O'connell is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD). His top areas of expertise are Type 1 Diabetes (T1D), Type 2 Diabetes (T2D), Osteoporosis, and Postmenopausal Osteoporosis.
