Weekly small group and 1-on-1 diabetes counseling

The diagnosis of diabetes can be overwhelming for anyone. It is a disease with associated risks, new medications, and usually requires a new lifestyle. Eating a healthier diet is among the most important lifestyle components of managing disease, and it is very important that new diabetes patients understand how medication, diet, and exercise can help control diabetes and prevent its complications. To this end, the Belize Diabetes Association host weekly counseling sessions at its Belize City office every Wednesday morning with a medical doctor who specialize in diabetes care and management.

Call 203-3333 or 670-9239 to make an appointment.
