Meet Doug and Kellie, MCT2D patients
In 2023, a nationwide shortage of GLP-1 RAs left many angling for access to their type 2 diabetes medication. Kellie and Doug, both individuals with type 2 diabetes, and their primary care provider, Rose Mary, were among those impacted. Kellie and Doug share just a slice of the challenges they faced in recent years—severe COVID-19 hospitalizations, disruptions and changes in health insurance coverage—as part of our Spring 2024 regional meetings.
