Ways To Subscribe

YKHC's Diabetes Prevention and Control Specialist Emory Johnson is joined by pharmacist and Diabetes Prevention and Control Coordinator Beth Tressler. To celebrate American Pharmacists' month, they discuss the importance of pharmacists in handling diabetes and other illnesses.

Due to COVID-19, the monthly diabetes support group will no longer meet. If you or a family member would like support, Diabetes Prevention and Control encourages people to contact their case managers directly, or call Emory Johnson at 907-543-6133.
