Doctor Discussion Guide

This Doctor Discussion Guide is a tool that you can print from home, customize, and take with you to your next doctor visit. It will provide you and your doctor with some possible discussion points about your diabetes treatment.

To customize your Doctor Discussion Guide, check any statement or question with a pen or pencil you would like to discuss with your doctor or treatment team. You can choose as many or as few as you want; you may even write some of your own.
