Diabetes impacts 37.3 million people in the United States, with 8.5 million of those individuals unaware that they have the condition. Raising awareness about diabetes is crucial to help prevent those with pre-diabetes from progressing to type 2 diabetes, to identify signs and symptoms of blood sugar dysregulation, and to promote access to care for diabetes and related conditions.
In honor of November being Diabetes awareness month, Hannibal Regional Diabetes Center is excited to host the “Ask the Experts Diabetes Seminar”. This event will take place on November 14, 2024 from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm in the Hannibal Regional Medical Group Conference Center.
This informative event is designed for individuals with diabetes or pre-diabetes and will focus on the prevention and management of diabetes-related conditions. Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from a panel of medical experts in endocrinology, cardiology, nephrology, and podiatry, who will provide insights into the impact of diabetes on overall health and strategies for managing related conditions. Participants will also enjoy refreshments and have the opportunity to ask questions to any of the presenting experts.
