We write this letter to express our gratitude with the work of Marcy Bergeron, NP, and the Diabetes Program. My husband was diagnosed with type II diabetes in June of 2008 at which time we started working with Marcy and the program. We were not educated about diabetes, how to control it, what to do to prevent it from getting worse, or the medication he would be taking until we met with Marcy in July of 2008. We then met with Suzanne Russell-Curtis, RD, who explained how to control diabetes through proper diet. In addition, we attended the classes offered by the program to educate us further.

Without the help of Marcy, Suzanne, who didn't hesitate to respond to emails or phone calls to answer any questions we had, and the program, this would have been a difficult road for us. We are glad to say, after being diagnosed he was taken off the medication at the beginning of February and has recently been placed in the "pre-diabetes" stage.

We are truly grateful for this program and the staff. They made such an impact on us and never made us feel that we were alone in trying to deal with diabetes. - Mrs. P.P.
