Pregnancy and Diabetes Clinic

I hesitated writing a review for this one. Its not like I want the world to know why I have to go to this clinic, but thought about it and figured why the heck not.
I’m a big one for calling out people who are a true credit to their profession and really go above and beyond for me as a patient. It’s so eye opening to be on the other end of the health care side. The care giver side and not the analytical numbers side.
This is my second appointment. This time I met with Patty who was absolutely fabulous! I hope for my sake and continuity of care I get to be with her all the time. She is one of the warmest, most educated, compassionate and helpful nurses I have ever met with. She explains everything so well and detailed that its easy to catch on and learn what you have to do. She’s patient and just has a wonderful demeanor.
Having to do what I have to do is not the best time nutrition wise, but its a small price to pay for the end result. I never thought I would have homework to do, but this stuff is an onslaught of info, charting etc. She explains it all very easily and not in a preachy way.
I’ve learned so much from her. Things I have never really cared about that much, but have a better understanding of pre– and post baby.
All the Unilocal restaurants, food pics and temptations have to be put on the back burner for awhile, but an occasional indulgence here and there…
Now once baby gets here, I plan to get busy… Kidding (sort of)…No really; kidding. I don’t want to have to do this again, but would if I got to go back to this clinic and have Patty work with me.
