Diabetes typically gets sorted into two types. Type I occurs when the body’s immune system attacks the pancreas, reducing the amount of insulin produced. Type II is more often diagnosed in adults, and is caused by the body becoming resistant to the insulin it does produce.

Gestational diabetes is another type which can occur during pregnancy. Managing gestational diabetes is important for the health of both the mother and the child.

CCC providers can help with managing all types of diabetes.

Our providers will take the time to go over all of the important information that patients with diabetes need to know in a way that you can understand.

Other support is also available including free medications, blood glucose monitors (glucometers), lab services, and mental health therapy.

Many patients with diabetes have other health concerns that they are monitoring at the same time. Our providers can help you manage all of your medical needs.

Regardless of the type, it is common for patients with diabetes to experience mental health concerns like depression or anxiety. Some diabetics have also experienced medical trauma, and might fear or avoid going to the doctor. Our integrated care model can offer mental health support for medical visits.

Patients with type II diabetes often manage heart disease (CVD or CHD), high blood pressure (hypertension), liver disease (MASLD), eye disease (retinopathy), and women’s health concerns (PCOS).

Patients managing type I diabetes often have other autoimmune diseases like Hashimoto’s, Grave’s, Addison’s, celiac, autoimmune gastritis or pernicious anemia, and vitiligo.

Many of our patients are managing diabetes along with any other health concerns. To support our patients and the community, we have informational blog posts available HERE on a variety of topics.
