At New Vision Wellness Center, we offer comprehensive diabetes screening services designed to identify risk factors and detect diabetes in its earliest stages.

What is Diabetes Screening?
Diabetes screening involves tests that assess blood sugar levels to determine if you are at risk for, or currently have, diabetes. This proactive approach helps:
1. Detect prediabetes and diabetes early
2. Prevent complications associated with uncontrolled blood sugar
3. Support lifestyle changes and treatment plans for better health
Why is Diabetes Screening Important?
Diabetes often develops silently, with symptoms appearing only after the condition has progressed. Regular screening is crucial for:
1. Individuals with a family history of diabetes
2. Those experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, increased thirst, or frequent urination
3. People with risk factors like obesity, high blood pressure, or a sedentary lifestyle
4. Early detection can significantly reduce the risk of complications, including heart disease, kidney damage, and nerve problems.
What to Expect During a Diabetes Screening
At New Vision Wellness Center, our diabetes screening process is thorough and patient-focused. Here’s what you can expect:
1. Health Assessment: We’ll review your medical history, lifestyle, and any symptoms you may be experiencing.
2. Blood Sugar Testing: This includes tests such as:
Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG): Measures blood sugar levels after fasting.
A1C Test: Provides an average of your blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months.
Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT): Assesses how your body processes sugar after a glucose-rich drink.
Risk Evaluation: We’ll assess your risk factors, including age, weight, and family history.
Personalized Recommendations: Based on your results, our team will provide tailored advice on lifestyle modifications, nutrition, exercise, or treatment plans if necessary.
