Managing overview
Everyone who has diabetes should be seen at least once every six months by an endocrinologist or a diabetologist and periodically by other members of a treatment team, including a diabetes educator and a dietitian, who will help develop or refine a meal plan. Ideally, you should also consult an exercise physiologist about a physical activity plan and, perhaps, a social worker, psychologist, or other mental health professional for help with the stresses of living with a chronic disease. It's extremely important to see an ophthalmologist annually, so any eye problems can be treated before they become serious.
