It offers a multidisciplinary team approach for diabetes care with comprehensive case management and the development of an individualized treatment plan. Our expert team is composed of diabetologists, certified diabetes educators and registered dieticians who are experienced in intensive diabetes management, including insulin pump therapy. The Center also has extensive experience in the management of gestational diabetes in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Additionally, the Diabetes Center receives federal funding to support ongoing clinical research.

Our areas of expertise in clinical care include:


• General endocrinology
