Diabetes Discourse

Guest: Patrick J. Boyle, MD Host: Steven Edelman, MD The frequency of hypoglycemic events for both type 1 and type 2 diabetics increases due to tight blood glucose control and more intensive treatment schedules. The disease differs significantly between type 1 and type 2 in the body’s defense mechanism of decreasing insulin concentration. Join host Dr. Steven Edelman and his guest, endocrinologist and professor of medicine Dr. Patrick Boyle, as they discuss what health care professionals need to know to help their patients avoid and treat hypoglycemia.
