Offering Education & Self-Management Strategies
University of Utah Health offers diabetes management services at multiple locations along the Wasatch Front at our health centers as well as the Utah Diabetes and Endocrinology Center (UDEC). Our goal is to help diabetes patients, by reducing complications and suffering with the end goal of ultimately preventing diabetes.
For patients with other endocrinology disorders, including nodules in the endocrine system, we offer specialty care and individualized treatment plans that focus on the patient’s needs.
The UDEC also provides tailored diabetes education to adults of all ages and is the only facility for comprehensive and continuous diabetes care and management in Utah and the Mountain West region. We are also a research facility consistently researching and applying the newest findings in the field of diabetes management and care.
