Type 1 Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition that typically develops in children and young adults, but it can occur at any age. Our care team focuses on helping you maintain stable blood sugar levels through insulin therapy, continuous glucose monitoring, and ongoing education. We’re here to guide you every step of the way.

Type 2 diabetes is the most common form and often develops due to a combination of genetic and lifestyle factors.

Other Forms of Diabetes
We also treat less common types of diabetes, such as those caused by medications (like steroids), hormonal disorders, or other medical conditions. Each patient receives a thorough evaluation and a personalized care plan designed for their unique circumstances.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What’s the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes?
Type 1 is an autoimmune disease where the body stops producing insulin. Type 2 involves insulin resistance and usually develops later in life, often due to lifestyle factors.
Can diabetes be cured?
There is currently no cure for diabetes, but it can be effectively managed. Some people with Type 2 diabetes can achieve remission through significant lifestyle changes.
How often should I see an endocrinologist?
Patients with diabetes should typically see an endocrinologist every 3 to 6 months, or more frequently if blood sugar levels are not well-controlled.
What symptoms should I watch out for?
Common signs of diabetes include excessive thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, blurry vision, and unexplained weight loss. If you notice these, seek medical advice promptly.
