Medical & Health Services
Ten years ago, Dr Titchener introduced NZ to a cutting edge approach to diabetes management when she opened GPSI Diabetes in Hawke's Bay. Today this cutting edge specialty diabetes service is providing care to people all over NZ
At the time a person is diagnosed with diabetes, they are generally given a set of instructions which they are expected to follow - "you need to lose some weight", "you should take insulin". In other words they are expecting a person to change their lifestyle and life choices so that they fit into a prescribed diabetes management regime
At GPSI Diabetes we do not do this. We recognise that each person is a unique individual with their own set of beliefs and priorities about their life, and that management success will not occur if treatments being selected do not suit the patient’s unique life situations and/or cultural and personal beliefs.
GPSI Diabetes provides care for all types of diabetes and for all ages - paediatrics to adulthood.
