I, as a 26 year Type II Diabetis patient, would recommend that you start off with a endocrinologist, and after initial treatments he or she may turn you over to a GP doctor. I have found that the adequacy of a GP doctor treating diabetis can be a very "iffy" thing. I have had good and I have had bad. I have had several endocrinologists over the years and my current, here in the Villages, Dr Shehzad Topiwala "Dr Topi" with Premier Medical Associates is the best I have had. He has a series of lecture and slide presentations from ground zero to advanced that he does in his office on a Saturday and they are just what you need as you start the journey.
