Due to my experience growing up with many family members with diabetes, I understand that the disease can have a complex impact on one's life.  It can impact not only your physical body but also your mental health, financial health, and family life as well.  Our goal as endocrinology providers is to find a balance between getting better blood sugars, reducing costs, and reducing medication burden.  Although insulin may sometimes be necessary, we treat it as a last resort. In fact, we have some patients that have been able to get off insulin over time.  The core of our philosophy is that diabetes care needs to be tailored to the individual, and we work to create mutual goals starting from the first visit.
