Have you ever wanted more time with your doctor than an office visit allows? If you have diabetes, here’s your chance, and it comes with a bonus: You’ll get one-on-one time with your endocrinologist, Dr. Rhee, plus support from others who also live with diabetes.
With shared medical appointments, you'll have a unique opportunity to:
-
Spend extra time with your diabetes specialist. During these appointments, 10 to 15 patients with diabetes gather at the MNPS Employee Wellness Center for 60-90 minutes. Each attendee spends one-on-one time with endocrinologist Dr. Rhee to review their treatment plan and address personal concerns and questions.
-
Get support from others who face similar challenges. A facilitator also attends, sharing information and encouraging group conversation among peers.
- Learn about the latest and greatest. During the session, we’ll make sure you’re up to date on the most innovative tools, resources and treatments available.
