Have You Had Your Annual Diabetes Review Yet?
If you live with diabetes, your annual diabetes review with our Registered Nurse is one of the most important appointments of the year.
This check-up isn’t just a routine visit it’s a proactive way to protect your health and prevent complications.
During your annual review, our RN will:
✔️ Check your HbA1c and blood sugar control
✔️ Review your blood pressure and cholesterol
✔️ Arrange blood tests if needed
✔️ Check your feet (early detection prevents serious problems)
✔️ Review your medications
✔️ Support healthy lifestyle goals
✔️ Answer any questions or concerns
Diabetes can affect many parts of the body including your heart, kidneys, eyes, and feet. Regular reviews help us pick up small changes early, before they become bigger issues.
📞 If you receive a recall from us, please don’t ignore it. Booking your annual diabetes review is one of the best steps you can take to stay well and in control of your health.
Your health matters and we’re here to support you every step of the way.
