S2E8 - Effective Diabetes Treatments ft. Dr. Emma McCutcheon, Endocrinologist

In this episode of Under the Insulin, hosts Maryna and Madison are joined by pediatric endocrinologist Dr. Emma McCutcheon to dive deep into the complexities of diabetes management.

Dr. McCutcheon shares her journey into endocrinology and her holistic approach to caring for diabetes patients, emphasizing the importance of identifying barriers patients face and helping them navigate these challenges.

We discuss what really matters when it comes to diabetes management (it’s not what you think!), the fundamentals of Type 1 vs Type 2, as well as social injustices in diabetes care. We wrap up by talking about the harmful myths around insulin resistance and weight, and the controversial topic of Ozempic.

Join us for an informative and engaging conversation that sheds light on the intricacies of diabetes management!
