World Diabetes Day

At Orleans Family Health Clinic, we believe that empowered patients lead healthier lives. This World Diabetes Day, we’re focusing on the importance of screening, early diagnosis, and continuous diabetes management — whether you already live with diabetes or may be at risk.

Know your numbers. Know your risk.

Type 2 diabetes often develops silently over years. By the time noticeable symptoms appear, complications may already be underway. Regular testing can help identify:

  • Elevated blood sugar
  • Pre-diabetes
  • Early signs of type 2 diabetes
  • Risk factors like weight changes, family history, high blood pressure, or inactivity

Already diagnosed? Ongoing care is essential.

Diabetes affects the entire body — eyes, kidneys, nerves, heart, and mental health. Our clinic provides comprehensive care, including:

  • Routine A1C monitoring
  • Medication review and treatment planning
  • Foot, eye, and blood pressure assessments
  • Lifestyle counselling for nutrition, activity, sleep, and stress
  • Support for diabetes burnout and mental health challenges

You don’t have to manage diabetes alone.

We take a team-based approach — helping you understand your health, adjust your treatment plan as needed, and prevent future complications.

We urge our patients to book a diabetes screening, follow-up, or risk assessment today. Early action saves lives — and protects your long-term health.
