Preventing Diabetes Complications Begins With Care

"Our Diabetes Education Program empowers patients to manage their diabetes by teaching them skills and providing the support they need to manage their diabetes in ways that meets their individual lifestyles.” Beth Cronin, MS, RD, LND, CDE, Coordinator of Steward Diabetes Care Program

Care For The Whole Person In Diabetes Treatment

“Endocrinology involves caring for not only the disease, but the person. With the right medical education and guidance, most diabetic patients can learn to understand their diabetes well enough to manage it themselves and reduce its complications.” Endocrinologist, Neil Ravin, MD

Preventing and Caring For Wounds For Patients With Diabetes

Daily inspection of skin is key in preventing wounds that won’t heal. Many patients at the center discover their wounds, which resisted healing after months and even years of traditional treatment, finally heal.
