An evidence-based guide for primary care physicians, residents, and medical students in managing patients with diabetes.
This text covers all aspects of outpatient care for adults and adolescents with diabetes. It is based upon patient centered strategies and customized care. Whether the patient has prediabetes or advanced long-term complications such as retinopathy or chronic kidney disease, providers of all specialties and all levels of care will gain insight into safe, effective and rationale intensification of one’s care. Complex co-existing disorders such as cancer, severe clinical obesity, polycystic ovary syndrome, severe insulin resistance, hypoglycemia awareness autonomic failure, steroid induced hyperglycemia and sleep disorders are discussed in vibrant detail.

*Examination of the relationship between obesity, sleep disorder and diabetes
*Detailed discussion of the relationship between cancer and diabetes
*The importance of becoming a culturally diverse clinician
*The politics of diabetes management in the US
