Types of Diabetes we specialize in
Type II Diabetes Treatment
Type II diabetes, also known as non-insulin-dependent diabetes, is a chronic condition that affects the way your body metabolizes glucose. Our expert diabetologists focus on managing and controlling blood sugar levels through a combination of lifestyle modifications, oral medications, and insulin therapy when necessary. We prioritize patient education, enabling you to understand your condition better and make informed decisions about your health.
Diabetes of Pregnancy (Gestational Diabetes Mellitus)
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) occurs during pregnancy and can pose risks to both the mother and baby if not managed properly. At Amba Health Centre & Hospital, our specialized team provides comprehensive care for pregnant women with GDM. We offer personalized treatment plans, including blood sugar monitoring, dietary counseling, and, if required, insulin therapy. Our goal is to ensure a healthy pregnancy and reduce the risk of complications for both mother and baby.
Obesity Management
Obesity is a significant risk factor for developing diabetes and can worsen existing diabetes conditions. Our diabetologists work closely with our team of weight management experts to provide comprehensive obesity management programs. We emphasize a multidisciplinary approach, combining dietary guidance, exercise plans, behavior modification strategies, and, if necessary, medical interventions to help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight.
Type I Diabetes Management
Type I diabetes, also known as insulin-dependent diabetes, requires lifelong management and regular insulin injections. Our diabetologists specialize in the diagnosis, treatment, and management of Type I diabetes. We provide personalized insulin therapy, continuous glucose monitoring, education on carbohydrate counting, and support for living a fulfilling life with Type I diabetes.
Diabetes Mellitus Complications
Uncontrolled diabetes can lead to various complications affecting multiple organs and systems of the body. At Amba Health Centre & Hospital, our diabetology team focuses on preventing and managing diabetes-related complications such as diabetic neuropathy, retinopathy, nephropathy, cardiovascular diseases, and foot ulcers. We provide comprehensive screening, early detection, and effective management strategies to minimize the impact of complications and improve your overall well-being.
Diet and Lifestyle Changes
Proper nutrition and lifestyle modifications play a crucial role in managing diabetes. Our experienced dieticians work closely with our diabetologists to create personalized meal plans that suit your specific dietary needs. We provide guidance on portion control, carbohydrate counting, healthy food choices, and meal timings to help you achieve and maintain stable blood sugar levels. Additionally, our team offers counseling and support to help you adopt a healthy lifestyle, including regular physical activity and stress management techniques.
Blood Glucose and HbA1c Testing
Regular monitoring of blood glucose levels and HbA1c testing is essential for managing diabetes effectively. At Amba Health Centre & Hospital, we offer state-of-the-art diagnostic facilities to accurately assess your blood glucose levels and HbA1c values. Our expert team interprets these results and uses them as valuable tools to guide your treatment plan, make necessary adjustments, and track your progress over time.
PCOS Care
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) often coexists with insulin resistance and an increased risk of developing Type II diabetes. Our diabetologists understand the unique challenges faced by individuals with PCOS and offer specialized care. We provide comprehensive evaluation, hormonal management, lifestyle modifications, and personalized treatment plans to address both the PCOS and diabetes-related concerns.
