Specialized Diabetic Therapies at Third River Medical

Comprehensive Solutions for Managing Diabetes and Preventing Complications

Understanding Diabetes and Its Impact on Your Health

Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects the way your body processes blood sugar (glucose). Over time, high blood sugar levels can lead to serious complications, including heart disease, kidney damage, nerve damage, and poor circulation, which can result in non-healing wounds and amputations. At Third River Medical, we provide a comprehensive approach to managing diabetes and its associated risks through personalized care plans designed to improve overall health and prevent complications.

Approximately 200,000 non-traumatic amputations occur in the United States each year, and of those, more than 130,000 are related to diabetes.

Specialized Diabetic Therapies We Offer

At Third River Medical, we offer a range of services designed to address the unique needs of diabetic patients, including:

  • Physiologic Insulin Resensitization (PIR) therapy is a cutting-edge treatment aimed at restoring the body’s natural insulin sensitivity. This non-invasive therapy can help reduce blood sugar levels and improve the effectiveness of insulin, addressing the root causes of diabetes-related complications.

  • Diabetes often leads to poor circulation and nerve damage, which can result in slow-healing wounds, particularly on the feet. Our advanced wound care treatments, including Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), are designed to accelerate healing and reduce the risk of infections, ensuring that diabetic ulcers and wounds heal faster and more effectively.

  • Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is an FDA-approved treatment that helps diabetic patients recover from chronic wounds and infections. By increasing the oxygen levels in the blood, HBOT promotes faster healing, reduces inflammation, and enhances tissue regeneration, all of which are critical for managing diabetic complications.

The Connection Between Diabetes, Endovascular Care, and Wound Healing

Diabetes is one of the leading causes of Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), a condition that narrows or blocks the blood vessels, reducing blood flow to the extremities. Poor circulation can hinder wound healing, especially in diabetic patients. By combining our Endovascular Procedures with Diabetic Care and Advanced Wound Care, we address both the underlying vascular issues and the wounds caused by diabetes. This integrated approach helps improve circulation, accelerate healing, and reduce the risk of severe complications like amputation.
