Managing Diabetes With The Help of a Registered Dietician

The team approach to ongoing diabetes management includes individualized health evaluations by an endocrinologist, diabetes nurse practitioner, and certified diabetes educators (including nurses and dietitians.) The diabetes team works with patients' primary care physicians to prepare a plan tailored to their unique circumstances. The comprehensive diabetes management track is flexible based on a patient's changing needs.

Listen as Dr. Devin Steenkamp, endocrinologist at Boston Medical Center, and Liz Brouillard, Registered Dietitian, explain how the endocrinologist and registered dietitian work together to help patients manage their diabetes.
