About Endocrinology Clinic
The Endocrinology Clinic specializes in the multidisciplinary care of diabetic patients and gives special attention to preventing complications of diabetes, allowing those with diabetes to live their best lives possible. Our mission is to achieve excellence in clinical outcomes and patient experience through comprehensive, collaborative care.
Our staff and providers work with our other subspecialists in ophthalmology (eye care), nephrology (kidney care) and podiatry (foot care) to address and prevent complications.Ā We focus on reducing risks of heart disease, heart failure, stroke, and other cardiovascular complications of diabetes by managing blood pressure, cholesterol, and working with colleagues in cardiovascular medicine. We also train physician residents in internal medicine and endocrinology fellows at UAMS.
Diabetes Patient Education
Patient education and support are fundamental to our practice.Ā We help teach and encourage patients to review their own blood sugar readings and patterns on a regular basis and collaborate with us when making medication adjustments.Ā Our clinic is supported by a full-time diabetes educator and dietician who is available to assist with teaching new medications, assistance with insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors, and navigating challenges with insurance coverage/reimbursement.
Our clinic also offers a diabetes information lineĀ for patients to contact members of the team with questions or concerns.

Appointment Information
Appointments with the Diabetes (Endocrine) ClinicĀ are by referral only. Please contact your primary care doctor or visit one of our doctors in theĀ Center for Primary CareĀ to obtain a referral.
We know that many patients take time out of work or time away from family and drive long distances to come to our clinic. Our goal is to respect your time and give you the most valuable clinic experience possible. This starts with minimizing your wait time and maximizing face-to-face time with our providers. You can help by arriving and checking in 15 minutes before your scheduled visit time.Ā Ā
What to Bring to Your Appointment
For your first appointment, please bring a photo ID and your insurance card along with a list of any medications youāre taking, including over-the-counter medications. You should also bring any medical records you can provide, including slides or test results from other clinics.
For future appointments, please provide updated medical and insurance information.
Please think in advance of 1-2 top concerns that you have and bring them up right away so that the staff and physicians are aware of your priorities for the visit.Ā We may not get to everything if you have a very long list, but we want to be sure to take care of the top concerns and handle the others at the next visit or between visits via MyChart.
Important note:Ā You should bring your blood glucose logbook, blood glucose meter, continuous glucose monitor and/or insulin pump to every visitĀ so that this information can be discussed and reviewed to help make the best changes.Ā We have a saying, āNot bringing your glucose data to the endocrinologist is like seeing a pediatrician and forgetting to bring your child.ā
