Primary Care

Diabetes screening is a key part of preventive health, helping detect high blood sugar levels before symptoms appear. Early screening allows for timely lifestyle changes or treatment to prevent serious complications like heart disease, nerve damage, and kidney issues. At Garduño Family Medicine, we include diabetes screening as part of your routine wellness care to support long-term health and early intervention.

What is Diabetes Screening and Why Is It Important at Garduño Family Medicine in Plano, TX?

At Garduño Family Medicine in Plano, TX, we believe that diabetes screening is a vital part of our preventive care approach—helping detect elevated blood sugar levels early, before symptoms arise. Diabetes occurs when the body can’t properly regulate blood glucose, which over time can lead to serious complications if left unmanaged. Through simple blood tests and personalized risk assessments, we identify patients at risk or living with undiagnosed diabetes. Early detection allows for timely intervention, empowering you to take control of your health through lifestyle changes, medical support, and proactive monitoring.
