Making an Appointment

To make your first appointment, call (415) 750-5513 or (415) 750-5508.  We will ask you a few questions about your diabetes and make your appointment.  When you call you may reach the message center.  Please leave your name and number so that we can return your call.  We appreciate your patience.

After your first appointment please call (415) 750-5517 to make or change appointments.

First appointment: bring your blood glucose meter if you have one, and your medications or a list of your medications.

Number of appointments is individual, based on your needs.  Your insurance may only cover a specified number of appointments.

Appointments are available Monday through Friday.

Individual Sessions

Individual sessions with the dietitian or nurse diabetes educator are by appointment.

Learn how and when to check your blood sugar levels, about your medications, and about how to keep healthy with diabetes. Learn what foods affect your blood sugar and design your personal meal plan. 

You are welcome to bring a friend or family member with you.

There is no one right way to deal with diabetes; certified educators will work with your doctor to make sure you have a plan that is right for YOU.


Registration

Register on the 5th floor 10 minutes before your appointment.
You do not have to register when you come to the group sessions on the 4th floor.
