Today is World Diabetes Day.

World Diabetes Day (WDD) is a global awareness campaign created in 1991 by International Diabetes Foundation and the World Health Organization. It became an official United Nations Day in 2006.

Millions of people with diabetes face daily challenges managing their condition at home, work and school, impacting both their physical and mental wellbeing.

The theme for WDD 2024-26 is ‘diabetes and wellbeing’. With appropriate access to diabetes care and support for their wellbeing, everyone with diabetes has the chance to live well.

Did you know that you can book all your medical appointments online?

We encourage patients to book their appointments online via AutoMed. Patients can also use the AMS Connect app to book and manage appointments. Both links are in our bio!

Our receptionists receive a high volume of calls, with a significant portion being appointment requests. By booking your appointments online, you’re freeing up our reception team to provide quality support to patients in need.

If you need assistance navigating AutoMed or the AMS Connect app, a staff member will be more than happy to help. Just let reception know and we can get you set up!
