Conditions We Treat at UPMC Department of Endocrinology

Diabetes

  • UPMC's board-certified endocrinologists treat people with complex diabetes. To help you manage your diabetes, they will refer you to Diabetes Self-Management Education (DSME) classes through the UPMC Diabetes Centers or to a one-on-one education visit with our diabetic educators.
  • These classes teach patients ways to self-manage diabetes and connect them with educators, health care professionals, and other people with diabetes who can become part of the support team.
