The Diabetes Center at Mercy believes that you are the key to success. The most effective treatment plans involve the patient, family and Mercy Diabetes Team working together.

We believe that diabetes education and nutrition education can help you develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to manage your diabetes successfully.
We will discuss what type of diabetes you may have. Depending on what type of diabetes you have, treatment may vary.

When you understand how blood sugar, medication, diet and exercise interact, you can understand how to better care for yourself. Our goal is to work as a team to support you in helping yourself. You are the most important person on the team, because you are the one who makes the choices. Our job is to educate and assist you so that you can make choices that are in your best interest.
