Dr. Regina Dandy Appears on WTOC to Speak about Diabetes Awareness and Management

Thursday, November 16, 2017

On Monday, November 13, Dr. Regina Dandy, a family medicine physician at the SouthCoast Health Richmond Hill location, appeared on “Mid-Morning Live” on WTOC for National Diabetes Awareness Month. She shared that while the diagnosis of diabetes is on the rise in the United States, it is of especially high concern for communities located in the Diabetes Belt, a range of southern counties with above average rates of diabetes. This condition is an important concern for the SouthCoast Health community, which encompasses the Lowcountry and Coastal Empire within the Diabetes Belt.

Along with educating viewers on the importance of raising diabetes awareness, Dr. Dandy discussed the Diabetic Self-Management Training program at SouthCoast Health. This program is a resource that helps patients become more knowledgeable about diabetes and empowers them to partner with their physician to manage their healthcare.
