Types of diabetes we treat

Each type of diabetes has unique characteristics and requires a tailored management approach. We treat all three.

🔵 Type 1
Type 1 Diabetes
An autoimmune condition in which the body does not produce insulin. Type 1 diabetes requires daily insulin management and careful monitoring of blood glucose levels. It can develop at any age and requires lifelong care.
🟡 Type 2 · Most Common
Type 2 Diabetes
The most common form of diabetes, where the body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn't produce enough to maintain normal blood sugar levels. Type 2 is closely linked to lifestyle factors and can often be managed effectively with the right plan.
🟠 Prediabetes · Reversible
Prediabetes
Higher than normal blood sugar levels that haven't yet reached the threshold for Type 2 diabetes. With early intervention — lifestyle changes, nutrition, and regular monitoring — prediabetes can often be reversed or significantly delayed.

Recognizing the signs of diabetes

Many people live with diabetes — or prediabetes — without knowing it. Watch for these common warning signs.

Increased thirst or dry mouth
Frequent urination, especially at night
Persistent fatigue or low energy
Blurred or changing vision
Slow-healing cuts, sores, or bruises
Increased hunger even after eating
Unexplained weight loss or gain
Tingling or numbness in hands or feet
Don't wait for symptoms

Many people with prediabetes or early Type 2 diabetes experience few or no noticeable symptoms — which is why routine screening is so important. A simple blood test can reveal whether your blood sugar levels are in a healthy range.

If you have risk factors for diabetes — such as family history, excess weight, or high blood pressure — our providers recommend proactive screening even without symptoms. Early detection gives you the best chance of effective management and complication prevention.

Preventing diabetes complications

Uncontrolled diabetes can gradually damage blood vessels and nerves throughout the body, leading to serious — and often preventable — complications. Proper, ongoing management is the most effective way to reduce these risks.

At Sunset Hills Family Practice, our proactive approach to diabetes care means we're watching for early warning signs of complications at every visit — so we can intervene before problems escalate.

📞 Start Your Diabetes Care Plan
Heart Disease
Diabetes significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, heart attack, and stroke.
Kidney Disease
High blood sugar over time can damage the kidneys' filtering ability, leading to chronic kidney disease.
Nerve Damage
Diabetic neuropathy causes tingling, numbness, and pain — most often in the feet and hands.
Vision Problems
Diabetic retinopathy can cause progressive vision loss if blood sugar remains uncontrolled.
Circulation Issues
Poor circulation — especially in the feet — can lead to infections and slow wound healing.
All Preventable
With proper management and regular monitoring, the risk of all these complications is significantly reduced.

Prediabetes: your window to act

A prediabetes diagnosis is not a life sentence — it's an opportunity. Patients with prediabetes can often prevent or significantly delay the development of Type 2 diabetes through lifestyle changes and early medical guidance.

Our providers help patients understand their risk, interpret their lab values, and build a realistic action plan that supports healthy blood sugar levels through nutrition, activity, and ongoing monitoring.

Dietary changes — reducing sugar and refined carbohydrates can lower A1C meaningfully
Regular physical activity — improves insulin sensitivity and lowers blood sugar
Weight management — even a 5–7% reduction in body weight can significantly lower diabetes risk
Regular monitoring — tracking blood sugar trends keeps you and your provider informed
Are you at risk for prediabetes?

Talk to your provider if any of the following apply to you.

Family history of Type 2 diabetes
High blood pressure or high cholesterol
Physically inactive or sedentary lifestyle
History of gestational diabetes
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
Previous A1C between 5.7% and 6.4%
