The Western Sydney Local Health District's diabetes clinics provide specialist medical care for people managing diabetes.
In particular, the focus is on early screening, diagnosis, optimising the care and management and treating complications of diabetes. Doctors in the clinic work closely with diabetes educators, dieticians, and podiatrists. We aim to maintain a close liaison with your general practitioners to help you get a well-rounded experience.
Who is eligible?
We care for prediabetic, people who have a diagnosis of Type 1 & 2 diabetes, pancreatic diabetes, steroid-induced diabetes and diabetes caused by any other conditions.
Please note that a valid referral from your GP is required. In general, new patients are advised to attend the Diabetes & Endocrinology Ambulatory Care Centre to see a Diabetes Educator and Dietitian before attending one of the specialist diabetes clinics.
