Diabetes management in Tulsa
Knowledge is one of the most important weapons in the fight against diabetes. The Center for Diabetes Management at Hillcrest Medical Center was built on this belief. Studies show that patients who understand diabetes and follow the treatments prescribed by their physicians live longer and have fewer complications than those who do not receive comprehensive diabetes education and self-care training. As the largest diabetes management program in Tulsa, we are dedicated to providing patients with the information and support needed to manage their disease. Whether you’ve recently been diagnosed with diabetes or have been living with diabetes your entire life, our diabetes specialists are here to help you live a healthy life and manage your disease every step of the way.
Diabetes treatment and education
At the Oklahoma Heart Institute, we understand that a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work for diabetes management. That’s why our team of highly trained dietitians, nurses and diabetes specialists work with each patient to tailor a program that includes the following:
- Coping strategies for living with diabetes
- Healthy eating education and nutritional guidance
- Medication management
- Physical activity
- Problem solving
- Reducing risks to better fit your lifestyle
- Self blood glucose monitoring
We also offer a variety of diabetes education resources. Group classes or one-on-one support sessions allow patients to learn the skills they need to take control of their diabetes, lower their A1c, and live healthier lives. Our group classes and individual appointments are offered at Hillcrest Medical Center. We also offer individual appointments at Hillcrest Hospital Claremore.
