Here is a list of conditions we treat and information about them.
Diabetes
Diabetes is a chronic medical condition that affects how the body processes blood sugar (glucose). There are two main types of diabetes: type 1, which is an autoimmune disease that occurs when the body's immune system attacks and destroys insulin-producing cells in the pancreas; and type 2, which occurs when the body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn't produce enough of it.
Other Medical Conditions

Pre-Diabetes
Pre-diabetes is a condition in which blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not yet high enough to be classified as type 2 diabetes. People with pre-diabetes are at increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, as well as other health problems such as heart disease and stroke.

Weight Loss
Obesity is a condition characterized by excessive body fat that can increase the risk of various health problems. One way to determine if you are obese is by calculating your body mass index (BMI), which is a measure of your weight in relation to your height. A BMI of 30 or higher is generally considered obese.
