preparation
Before Your Visit
To make your visit as productive as possible, please come prepared with the following:
A complete and up-to-date list of all medications, including insulin, oral medications, supplements, and doses
Recent lab work, imaging reports, or bone density (DEXA) scan results, ideally within the past 3–6 months (if available)
Access to your CGM data or glucose records (if applicable)
If you have not had recent lab work, we are happy to help arrange this prior to your visit. We are also pleased to help connect your cloud-based CGM and insulin pump data to the clinic in advance of your appointment.
Having this information available is essential to making the most of your visit.
If you are using a continuous glucose monitor, you will be asked to share or upload your data prior to your visit. If you are not currently using CGM, we can discuss whether it may be appropriate for you. Coverage is often dependent on insurance criteria.
After Your Visit

Insurance & Payment
We accept most major insurance plans. Coverage for services such as CGM may vary depending on your plan.
