Area of Expertise: Diabetes and Endocrinology Care

Diabetes is a disease that affects the way the body turns sugar into energy. There are several types of diabetes, including Type 1, Type 2 and gestational diabetes.

At UAMS Health, we want you to feel engaged and empowered about managing your diabetes. We have seen first-hand that the most effective way to manage diabetes is for there to be open communication between you and your doctor. We encourage our patients to be proactive, ask questions and get involved in their care. 

The Benefits of Diabetes Care at UAMS Health

Complications that have long been associated with diabetes, like eye disease and kidney disease, are generally preventable. But if you are a patient at UAMS Health and you experience these complications, our endocrinologists work closely with our eye care and kidney care experts to address your issues as a team.

It is not unusual for people who have diabetes to also have problems with their feet. Diabetes can cause nerve damage that reduces sensation in your feet. If you have diabetic nerve damage, our endocrinologists work closely with podiatrists to care for your foot health.
