Allan M. Spiegel M.D. - RSD Therapy

In Type 2 diabetes, the patient either loses the ability to produce sufficient insulin or develops a lack of sensitivity to it—the insulin may be there, but the body doesn't know how to use it. Type 2 diabetes used to be known as "maturity onset diabetes," but seems to more tied to weight than age. Today's children are at high risk of getting the disease if they are overweight.

Type 2 diabetes is often controlled with prescription medications to maintain healthy blood sugar levels. Severe or long-standing diabetes may require the same close monitoring and insulin injections as Type 1.

Over the past 10 years, Allan M. Spiegel, M.D., has successfully treated many patients suffering diabetic neuropathy and non-healing wounds. To schedule a hyperbaric oxygen therapy consultation to discuss how this treatment can help you, give our office a call.
