SCHOOL OF DIABETES AND OVERWEIGHT

The primary purpose of the school is to support adults and children living with diabetes, overweight, and their families.

The Department of Family Medicine of  Odessa National Medical University invites you to the first meeting of the School of Diabetes and Overweight on February 12, 2020 at 15.00 at:

Odesa, Shkliaruk Street, 4a, Road Hospital Outpatient Clinic, 5th floor, conference hall. Contact phone number: 0675913663. Valentyna Velichko, Professor, Head of the department.

Diabetes and overweight are two issues that, despite their considerable prevalence, are of concern to many of us. According to world statistics, every second patient with diabetes does not know that they are ill! And when the diagnosis becomes known, complications leading to disability are already formed by that time. Diabetes is a devious disease because late diagnosis leads to a difficult therapy!

However,  patients and their families are very often confronted with so much different information that choosing the right path and not losing motivation on the path to health becomes a challenge. We can help highlight the world’s conflicting data and answer your questions.

Our team includes practicing physicians, psychologists, nutritionists and pharmacists, as well as people living with diabetes. Therefore, we look at diabetes and overweight from different angles.

We will be glad to share your knowledge and experience to increase your motivation to manage your body and eating habits.
