What to Expect

• If your diabetes health care provider has referred you, we will call you to set up an appointment after we have reviewed your referral and obtain insurance authorization as needed. This process typically takes 1-2 weeks.
• If you are interested in diabetes education but your provider has not referred you, you may call our office and we can help request a referral from your provider.
