Type 1 Diabetes Care:
Sequoia Medical 360
Empowering Life With an Autoimmune Condition
Type 1 Diabetes is an autoimmune disorder in which the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the pancreatic beta cells responsible for insulin production. Without insulin, glucose cannot move into cells for energy, leading to dangerously high blood sugar and the lifelong need for insulin therapy.
Although most commonly diagnosed in children and young adults, Type 1 Diabetes can occur at any age. In adults, it is sometimes misclassified as Type 2, leading to delayed treatment. Symptoms often include rapid weight loss, extreme thirst, frequent urination, blurry vision, and fatigue. If left untreated, the condition can escalate quickly into diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) — a medical emergency.

Patient Vignettes
The Executive on the Move
A 52-year-old executive, traveling weekly for work, struggled to manage fluctuating glucose with a demanding schedule and frequent dining out. By transitioning to an Omnipod 5 pump paired with Dexcom G7, we created an adaptive system that automatically adjusted basal insulin during travel stress and unpredictable meals. With remote CGM review, Dr. Mathews fine-tuned therapy between visits, allowing him to stay focused on his performance — not his blood sugars.
The Young Athlete
A 19-year-old collegiate soccer player faced unpredictable glucose swings during training and competition. Using Tandem Control-IQ with integrated CGM, we set tailored exercise modes to reduce hypoglycemia risk during high-intensity activity, while programming recovery adjustments for post-game glucose spikes. Nutrition strategies and VO₂ max testing were layered in, allowing him to play at peak performance with confidence and safety.
