Diabetes and Obesity Management Services
Cumberland Diabetes Center was established in 2019 for the purpose of bettering the quality of life of patients affected by diabetes or obesity.
Our program is available to all patients and their families who are motivated to develop knowledge and self-care skills. We empower patients with individualized education, goals, and self-management mentoring.
- Education covers nutrition, exercise physiology, evidence-based pharmaceutical therapy, behavioral health, weight loss, and tobacco cessation.
- Self-management plans are built around a patient’s lifestyle, co-morbid conditions, bio-markers, motivations, mental health, and socioeconomic circumstance.
Please note a physician referral is required for diabetes management but not for weight loss. We offer:
- Pre-diabetes management
- Education and management of newly diagnosed diabetes
- Intensive care of Type 1 or 2 diabetes
- Weight loss management
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide a team-based care center that leverages all available resources and innovations to motivate, educate, train, and treat diabetes and obesity. We’ll collaborate with providers, patients, and the community to provide the best possible care for the prevention, management, and potential remission of diabetes. We’ll empower patients to achieve and sustain their best quality of life.
Our Goal
Our goal is to support referring providers by coming alongside their patients with focused education and/or intensive management. We want to help prevent progression or complications from diabetes and obesity. To achieve sustainable lifestyle changes and disease management, patients need continuous monitoring, guidance, and support.
Caring for Our Community
Our patients deserve excellent medical care. It’s our commitment at Cumberland Diabetes Center to provide the best possible care to educate and support individuals affected by diabetes or obesity. To truly manage patients holistically, the education and self-care skills can’t be contained to the four walls of the office, but must be include family, the workplace, school, place of worship, and the community.
