Diabetes is a chronic health condition that affects how your body turns food into energy. When you have diabetes, your body either doesn't make enough insulin or can't use the insulin it makes as well as it should.
When there's not enough insulin or cells stop responding to insulin, too much blood sugar stays in your bloodstream. Over time, this can lead to serious health problems like heart disease, vision loss, and kidney disease.
At Sarasota Diabetes & Neuropathy Center, our board-certified diabetes specialists help patients in Sarasota, Bradenton, Venice & Lakewood Ranch manage their condition through advanced, non-invasive treatment approaches.

Understanding the different types of diabetes is the first step toward effective management and treatment.
An autoimmune condition where the pancreas produces little or no insulin. Usually diagnosed in children, teens, and young adults. Requires daily insulin therapy.
The most common form where the body doesn't use insulin well. Often develops in adults but is increasingly seen in younger populations. Can often be managed with lifestyle changes.
Develops during pregnancy and usually resolves after giving birth. Requires careful monitoring and can increase risk of Type 2 diabetes later in life.
96 million American adults have prediabetes—blood sugar that's higher than normal but not yet Type 2 diabetes. This is your chance to make changes before diabetes develops. Our diabetes reversal program in Sarasota can help you prevent or delay Type 2 diabetes.
