Excellence is Our Standard

Diabetes is one of leading causes of death in America today.
Untreated diabetes can cause unexpected medical expenses and major disruption of quality of your life.  An increasing rate of people is newly diagnosed for diabetes in recent years.  

Are you diabetic?

Over one million people are undiagnosed and carrying this disease in the U.S. today.

Come in and use our Diabetic Screening Test to find out your health numbers.

Our Diabetic Screening Test is relatively quick and easy.  

We offer our Diabetic Screening Service every day. 

The test results are available in a few minutes while you wait. 

We use the fingerstick method. You need to fast for 9 to 12 hours before the sample is collected.

If your test results indicate the following, we recommend consulting with your medical doctor.

A.     Your A1C measurement is higher than 6.5%

B.     Your Fasting Sugar level is higher than 125 mg/dL

C.     And your BMI is higher than 30

Diabetes doesn't suddenly appear.  Does diabetes disappear by reducing sugar intake?  Some people question whether diabetes is a disease.  Yes, it is a disease.  By the time of diagnosis, the patient may have lost a significant portion of beta-cell function, and the beta-cell function may continue to decline annually.  We recommend this screening service today if you want to know about your A1C measurement.  This simple procedure is available for you and your loved ones today.
 

The good news is that a diabetic person who follows the proper diabetic care can live healthier than people without diabetes that live an unhealthy lifestyle.
