Diabetes Management at Carrara Family Practice: Supporting Long-Term Health and Wellbeing
Carrara Family Practice provides comprehensive diabetes management services designed to support patients at every stage of their health journey. Our patient-centred approach focuses on education, prevention, and ongoing management to help individuals live well with diabetes.
The Importance of Ongoing Diabetes Care
Diabetes is a long-term condition that requires regular monitoring and proactive management. With the support of a local GP, patients can:
- Monitor blood glucose levels and overall health more effectively
- Reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications
- Receive personalised treatment plans tailored to their lifestyle
- Access early intervention when health indicators change
Consistent care from a familiar healthcare team helps patients stay informed, confident, and in control of their condition.

Our clinic offers structured and supportive diabetes care, focused on both medical management and lifestyle guidance.
Assessment and Ongoing Monitoring

Individualised Treatment Plans
Every patient’s needs are different. Our GPs develop tailored care plans that may include medication management, lifestyle advice, and goal setting to support long-term health.
Lifestyle and Preventive Support
Managing diabetes goes beyond medication. We support patients with guidance on nutrition, physical activity, and weight management, helping them make sustainable changes that improve overall wellbeing.
Mental Health and Emotional Support
Living with diabetes can be challenging. Our GPs recognise the emotional impact of chronic conditions and provide supportive care, with referrals to allied health or mental health professionals when required.
Coordinated Allied Health Care
Patients may be referred to allied health providers such as dietitians, diabetes educators, podiatrists, or exercise physiologists to ensure comprehensive, team-based care.
