Type 2 Diabetes Clinic
Type 2 Diabetes is the most common form of diabetes in India. It is commonly seen in individuals who are above the age of 40. Some of the risk
actors for developing this type of diabetes are obesity, sedentary lifestyle, unhealthy diet and lack of exercise.
A diagnosis of diabetes is life changing but with the right and timely care and support
system, diabetes patients can lead a happy and healthy life.
The Diabetes Unit at Hopewell Multispeciality Clinic offers patients the best possible care. We offer a multidisciplinary approach towards diabetes management, experienced educators and certified dieticians, all focused on improving the lives of people with diabetes. Our mission is not only to control sugars
but to avoid and treat diabetes complications at the earliest, in order to help our patients
lead a happy and healthy life.
We follow the pentagon of diabetes management; each of its corners is of immense
importance. It includes:
- Diet
- Diabetes Education
- Diabetes treatment with medication
- Regular monitoring
- Exercise
Type 1 Diabetes Clinic
Type 1 diabetes can develop at any age, but usually appears before the age of 40, particularly in childhood. Around 10% of all diabetes is type 1.
In type 1 diabetes, the pancreas (a small gland behind the stomach) progressively reduces the amount of insulin (the hormone that regulates blood glucose levels) it produces until it stops producing any at all.
If the amount of glucose in the blood is too high, it can, over time, seriously damage the body’s organs.
