Hi! I'm Amanda Mathieu, the Diabetes Nurse Educator and I am also a Certified Diabetes Educator.

I can help you understand diabetes, and help you manage your diabetes. We can discuss other health issues as they relate to diabetes. Our office is client centered and focused on supporting self-management. I will provide ongoing education, care and support to you and your family as necessary. I have been a Registered Nurse for more than 25 years. I joined the Diabetes Education Centre on January 2/08. Prior to that, I worked at the West Parry Sound Health Centre in a variety of roles and settings.
I look forward to meeting you!

Hi! I am Michelle Pletzer the Administrative Assistant.
I have been with the Diabetes Education Centre since 2004. Before this time I worked in various Toronto teaching hospitals. I am the first to welcome you upon your arrival at the office. I will ask to see your health card and fill out the standard office authorization form before you see the Registered Nurse and/or Registered Dietitian. I am in the office on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Friday mornings. Please remember to bring your health card to your appointment. On your subsequent visits to the office I will be downloading your glucometer and making a copy of your logbook readings. For this reason it is helpful that you remember to bring these things with you to every visit.
Please feel free to call me at any time if you have any questions or concerns, as I am happy to help in any way I can.
I look forward to meeting you!
