Which means a head-to-toe check isn’t just helpful, it’s essential.

Here's what's covered during your Diabetes day visit at Desert Senita

  • Glucose checks for your day-to-day numbers

  • Foot exams, and more to catch issues early

  • Personalized care plans so you can feel confident about your next steps

Haven't seen the doctor yet, but you feel "off"?

According to the CDC and the American Diabetes Association, over 38 million Americans live with diabetes and don’t even know they have it.

If you have any of these symptoms:

  • Frequent urination and extreme thirst because that is your body’s way of trying to flush out excess sugar.

  • Fatigue because your cells aren’t getting the energy they need

  • Slow-healing cuts or bruises because it could be a sign your immune system may be struggling

  • Tingling or numbness in hands and feet can be caused by early nerve damage from high blood sugar

It is important to recognize that these aren't normal, and you should call your family physician or provider to book an appointment to get checked for Diabetes.
