“Ask The Doc!” Dr. William Whaley On Diabetes and Weight Management

This week on ‘Ask The Doc!’ Dr. William Whaley is discussing weight and diabetes management, and how to control these conditions as well as treat them to prevent a stroke. Here are some questions we asked Dr. Whaley today:

1. Will a person with Type 2 diabetes under control end up with the need for insulin?

2. Is there a genetic factor to strokes?

3. What exactly is a spine block injection? Will it work long-term for low back pain due to disc problems?
