Diabetes and Technology

Our team of clinicians is certified in the use of the most advanced technologies to support patients living with diabetes.  Our outpatient practice cares for patients using continuous glucose monitors and insulin pump therapy (including the latest advanced hybrid closed-loop systems).  Our diabetes specialists are well versed in each of the commercially available platforms and are dedicated to ensuring that access to technology improves quality of life for people living with diabetes.   

Our inpatient team provides ongoing support to hospitalized patients using insulin pump therapy.  We collaborate with multiple disciplines in the hospital to support patient autonomy and safety throughout hospitalization for patients wishing to remain on insulin pump therapy during acute illness, when able.

Of note, Stony Brook University Hospital was one of the very first hospitals in the nation to utilize continuous glucose monitors to support hospitalized patients with COVID-19.
