Ascertain your risk of Type 2 Diabetes

As part of our commitment to the health of our local community, we can provide Type 2 Diabetes Assessments to patients who feel they may be at risk.

Type 2 Diabetes is one of the largest contributors to the ill health in Australia, and type 2 diabetes accounts for 92% of diabetes cases. Diabetes is associated with a number of complications, including an increased risk of developing cardiovascular, eye and kidney disease. The incidence of Type 2 Diabetes has more than doubled in the last 15 years.

The onset of Type 2 Diabetes is largely associated with lifestyle risk factors, particularly overweight and obesity, physical inactivity and poor diet. Type 2 diabetes can be prevented through lifestyle modification. International evidence has shown that early lifestyle interventions in high risk patients can reduce the incidence of type 2 diabetes by up to 58%.

If you would like to ascertain your risk of Type 2 Diabetes we recommend you have a diabetes evaluation at our practice. The evaluations, known as an Annual Diabetic Cycle of Care Plan and a Six Monthly Review of Care Plan, will take place with the assistance of our chronic disease nurse and will be finalised with a standard doctor’s consultation.
The evaluations will involve:

  • Body Mass Index measurement, blood pressure and general physical exam
  • Family history and dietary review
  • Assessment of lifestyle risk factors

If you feel you may be at risk of diabetes, please call one of our centres to arrange a thorough evaluation.
