Diabetes Care


More than 20 million people in the United States are living with diabetes. It is a common, chronic disease – but each person with diabetes experiences it differently, and requires an individualized approach catered to their specific needs.

Fletcher Allen is dedicated to providing care that is specialized and personalized. Every day, our experienced endocrinologists, nurse practitioners, diabetes nurses, dietitians and other providers diagnose, evaluate and treat patients and their families. And as a university hospital, you can be sure that your care is informed by the latest medical knowledge, and includes the latest treatments and therapies.

Fletcher Allen provides comprehensive care for all stages of diabetes and other conditions affecting the glands and hormones – as well as specialized services including dialysis and transplant surgery for complications of the disease. Our diabetes care goes beyond clinical care, with a strong focus on patient education and ongoing partnerships with community programs.

Whether you or a loved one is pre-diabetic, recently diagnosed, or has been coping with diabetes and related health problems for many years, our goal is to make it as easy as possible for you to live your life in the manner you choose.
