  • While at that appointment, he learned about a shared medical appointment that Dr. Parseghian holds for patients with diabetes and thought it sounded appealing the shared medical appointment is part of the offering at North Shore Physicians Group. A medical assistant takes the blood pressure readings of all patients and then Dr. Parseghian reviews each patient’s case, asking and answering questions. He is also learning from the experiences of the other patients in the shared medical appointments and the efforts they find successful in controlling their disease. The shared medical appointments are a great way to augment my individual appointments with Dr. Parseghian,” says Barlow. “They give me an added level of support and education that really helps keep me on track.” Although diabetes is a chronic and incurable disease with the exception of gestational diabetes, with proper medical care, clinical therapies, diet, hygiene and exercise, symptoms and complications can be successfully treated and managed.
