Diabetes
Local Kiama diabetes treatment and diagnosis - Terralong Street Surgery
Diabetes is on the rise but can be controlled.
Diabetes treatment, care and diagnosis
We understand life is busy, so we offer telephone appointments to arrange a pathology referral for your blood tests.
Visit the surgery
As part of Diabetes ongoing care, we need to see you every 3
months if your Hba1c is >7 to optimise your diabetic control. For
those patients with well controlled Hba1c <7, it is recommended
you see your doctor every 6 – 12 months. A team of allied health
professionals can assist in the management of your diabetes via a
Health Care Plan funded by Medicare. Speak to your doctor about
starting one of these plans.
