Education

One-on-one sessions are also available, where new patients are explained the nature and progression of the disease and how best to maximise their health and wellbeing.

Insulin initiation

Our practice nurses are familiar with injection technique, blood glucose monitoring and dosage control, to help take the worry out of starting insulin.

Diabetes Psychology
