CGM setup and monitoring

A continuous glucose monitor replaces finger-stick snapshots with a full picture of what your glucose does overnight, after meals, and during exercise. Most people learn more in their first two weeks on a CGM than in years of routine testing.

What's Involved

Device setup — Sensor application and app setup, done with you in the office.
Interpretation — Reviewing your traces together to identify the patterns that matter.
Adjustment — Medication and meal timing changed on the strength of real data.

When to Come In

Unexplained highs and lows — Readings that do not match what you expect.
On insulin — Anyone using insulin benefits from continuous data.
Hypo unawareness — Losing the warning symptoms of a low.
