Diabetes Relief Center Patient: Theres A Miracle Working Here
Since she began treatments at the DRC, her chronic listlessness has morphed into motivation and energy and the tingling in her hands and legs is now gone. So Patricia Greaves has concluded, Theres a miracle working here. Greaves, a nurses aid from Jackson Heights who is in her third month of treatments at the DRC, has significant family history with Diabetes. Her mother and brother have it. Her grandmother died from it. She too, was debilitated from the disease, suffering many sleepless nights for almost seven years. But, things changed, she says, as soon as her second treatment at the DRC. Im not shut down like I used to shut down, she said. The treatment is working. They hook me to the machine and take my blood sugar and then they give me the treatment based on the numbers. I only have good readings now. Those readings are monitored not only by DRC staff, but by Luis Rodriquez, her husband of one year who dutifully accompnies her to each treatment. It was Luis who heard about the DRC from a church friend and encouraged his wife to try. Ive definitely seen her change, he willingly admitted. Then he added with a grin, I researched the Trinia Treatment and a brochure said that even your sex life would improve. I said, yeah, right. Guess what! They both laughed. Across the expansive room with the comfy treatment chairs is lifelong Bronxite Raymond Seda, 67, a retired doorman who is getting his fifteenth treatment. He too suffered with Diabetes for seven years, but has seen positive changes since being treated at the DRC. Hes losing weight and says he has more energy to walk further. Also, he heals quicker. The other day I banged my little toe and the whole side turned black and blue, he said. Within a couple of days it was normal again. It came back to pinkish color. In Continue reading >>
Doctors Debunk Diabetes Treatment As Fraud Charges Hit Clinic Executive
Just imagine: A nonsurgical treatment that helps millions of people with complications from diabetes restore vision, repair damaged kidneys, and reverse heart disease and cognitive decline. A treatment that heals wounds in their legs and feet, repairs damage from stroke, and eliminates a common type of diabetic nerve pain called neuropathy. The nation has a limited supply of healthcare dollars to spend on drugs and services, which is why the government and health plans require scientific evidence of patient benefit. This is especially important for the 30.3 million people in the U.S. with diabetes, whose medical costs in 2012 totaled $245 billion. Thats what lawyer G. Ford Gilbert and his network of Trina Health clinics have been promising with his IV insulin infusions offered through his Sacramento-based company. The Trina CEO calls the procedure miraculous, and the first real change in treatment for people with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes since the 1921 discovery of insulin . Gilbert has not been deterred by the nations top experts in diabetes who aggressively debunk his procedure, calling it outright fraud and a scam. Nor has he seemed daunted by Medicare and some private insurance companies, which have refused to pay for outpatient insulin infusion procedures because they lack sufficient evidence of medical benefit. The American Diabetes Association dissuades patients from seeking Gilberts branded Artificial Pancreas Treatment , saying people with diabetes are a particularly vulnerable population. Despite these obstacles, Gilbert has openly marketed his infusion protocols for years, expanding across 17 states, even as investigations, audits and payment denials have shut down many of his clinics. Now his Trina Health operation faces a new threat. A federal grand jury Continue reading >>
In The Treatment Of Diabetes, Success Often Does Not Pay
N.Y. / Region |In the Treatment of Diabetes, Success Often Does Not Pay With much optimism, Beth Israel Medical Center in Manhattan opened its new diabetes center in March 1999. Miss America, Nicole Johnson Baker, herself a diabetic, showed up for promotional pictures, wearing her insulin pump. In one photo, she posed with a man dressed as a giant foot - a comical if dark reminder of the roughly 2,000 largely avoidable diabetes-related amputations in New York City each year. Doctors, alarmed by the cost and rapid growth of the disease, were getting serious. At four hospitals across the city, they set up centers that featured a new model of treatment. They would be boot camps for diabetics, who struggle daily to reduce the sugar levels in their blood. The centers would teach them to check those levels, count calories and exercise with discipline, while undergoing prolonged monitoring by teams of specialists. But seven years later, even as the number of New Yorkers with Type 2 diabetes has nearly doubled, three of the four centers, including Beth Israel's, have closed. They did not shut down because they had failed their patients. They closed because they had failed to make money. They were victims of the byzantine world of American health care, in which the real profit is made not by controlling chronic diseases like diabetes but by treating their many complications. Insurers, for example, will often refuse to pay $150 for a diabetic to see a podiatrist, who can help prevent foot ailments associated with the disease. Nearly all of them, though, cover amputations, which typically cost more than $30,000. Patients have trouble securing a reimbursement for a $75 visit to the nutritionist who counsels them on controlling their diabetes. Insurers do not balk, however, at payi Continue reading >>
Vh1’s ‘love & Hip Hop’ Stars Speak Out In The South Bronx On World Diabetes Day
The South Bronx has the highest rate of people suffering from diabetes in the entire United States. Of the 62 counties in New York State, the Bronx ranks last in health. Against the backdrop of these dim figures, there are people in the Bronx from all walks of life standing up to do something about it. Notably, the efforts of the Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr., who launched #Not62: A Campaign for a Healthy Bronx to combat the factors negatively affecting the health of Bronx residents. Now, there are new efforts underway, and several stars of the VH1 series ‘Love and Hip Hop’ and physicians from the cutting edge of diabetes research and treatment gathered in the South Bronx on November 14th, 2017 to speak out, raise awareness and celebrate advances against the debilitating disease. The official United Nations sanctioned World Diabetes Day event was held at the grand opening of the new Diabetes Relief Centers of America location at Third Avenue and 148th Street in the Bronx. It is the first Diabetes Relief Center location outside of the Southeastern US and was located in the Bronx because it is the area with the greatest need, where they can have the largest impact on the population. Lon G. Von Hurwitz, President and Co-Founder of Diabetes Relief Centers of America, LLC said that the center welcomes the community in through its doors just as much as the community welcomes the center to the neighborhood. Michael Brady, Executive Director of the HUB Third Avenue Business Improvement District, described the busy commercial corridor where the Diabetes Relief Center is opening, the second most trafficked in NYC to Times Square. Brady told the attentive crowd about the billions of dollars in public funding and private investment pouring into the Bronx to revitalize Continue reading >>
Diabetes Center Opens In The South Bronx
Stephon Johnson | 11/16/2017, 11:13 a.m. On World Diabetes Day (Nov. 14), the South Bronx celebrated the opening of a center designed to combat the condition that afflicts many of its residents. Right off The Hub shopping area at East 148th Street and Third Avenue, the Diabetes Relief Centers South Bronx location finds itself in ground zero of the epidemic. The Bronx is rated last in health among New York States 62 counties in New York State, and leads New York City and New York State in diabetes rates. Three of the top five neighborhoods with the highest rates of diabetes are located in the Bronx (including Fordham). Ray Basri, the centers medical director, said that its their job is to help people live at their healthiest through multiple means. I think the most important thing is that its a place that people can come for consultation, Basri said. And we can explore the possibility of optimizing treatment. Were about providing better care that focuses, first of all, on education and, second of all, on nutrition. Theres emotional support for people to know that theyre not at fault for their diabetes. We want to try and make people feel like there are ways to receive care that aligns with what they want to see for themselves. Were hoping its gonna be part of the solution, continued Basri. Were hoping we can add a kind of treatment that will reduce complications. That treatment is known as the Trina Treatment, named after developer Dr. Ford Gilberts daughter who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2. This is a treatment that has proved itself in other regions around the country, said Diabetes Relief Centers of America President and Co-Founder Lon G. von Hurwitz. [Gilbert] came up with a way to use microburst insulin to mimic what the pancreas should do in p Continue reading >>
Former Acc Head Backed Trina's Diabetes Therapy
Former ACC Head Backed Trina's Diabetes Therapy Company persuaded Jack Lewin, MD, to speak on controversial treatment's behalf Last month,MedPage Todayand San Diego-based partnerinewsourcereported on Trina Health, a chain of diabetes care clinics providing a controversial regimen of insulin infusions. That investigation focused on Trina's origins and marketing claims and on founder G. Ford Gilbert's business and legal troubles . Here we report on a well-known figure in cardiovascular medicine who -- unlike nearly all of his physician colleagues -- found the claims credible and lent his name to the enterprise. Lawyer G. Ford Gilbert, the recently indicted founder of the national diabetes network Trina Health , hitched his clinic's expansion plans to a big name in organized medicine and health policy: Jack Lewin , MD. Lewin was CEO of the California Medical Association for more than 11 years, CEO of the American College of Cardiology for more than five and president and CEO of the Cardiovascular Research Foundation for four. He chairs the board of the National Coalition on Health Care in Washington, D.C. In the spring of 2017, Lewin added another title to his resume. He took on a job as chief medical and science advisor for a New York investor group that had contracted with Gilbert to open one of the largest Trina clinics in the country, the Trina Diabetes Relief Center South Bronx . Gilbert says his " Artificial Pancreas Treatment " protocols, which he has sold to numerous medical and investor groups for $300,000 or more since 2011, reverse complications of diabetes -- like nerve pain, heart disease and kidney damage -- through four-hour long weekly IV infusions of insulin. But dozens of diabetes experts call Gilbert's treatment a "scam" or "a fraud," saying it lacks sc Continue reading >>

Nyc's First Diabetes Relief Center Coming To The Bronx - Welcome2thebronx
Diabetes Relief Center is scheduled to open its doors this coming September. Relief for diabetics is coming to The Bronx with the new Diabetes Relief Center bringing, the most important advancement for treatment since insulin for the disease. The Bronx, with the worst health outcome as the unhealthiest of 62 counties in New York State, leads the city and state with one of the highest rates of diabetes. In fact, 3 of the 5 neighborhoods with the highest rates are in the Bronx: Fordham, Northeast Bronx, and the South Bronx. Now, thanks to Diabetes Relief Centers, quality of life for thousands of Bronxites and New Yorkers with diabetes is about to change as they get ready to open up their first center not just in New York City but the entire Northeast. The treatment, which according to Diabetes Relief Centers, mimics effect that normal pancreas has on liver, is administered intravenously in their clinical centers and delivers micro pulses of insulin. Unlike traditional insulin treatment which simply treats glucose, this treatment affects nerve endings, the brain, retinas, liver, kidneys and according to research has been shown to halt or even reverse serious complications from advanced diabetes. The nearly 6,000 square foot center coming to 2825 Third Avenue at 149th Street in the Third Avenue Business Improvement District at The Hub will provide roughly 25-35 treatment chairs and the ability to treat roughly 600 patients weekly in an area that is considered to be ground zero of diabetes in NYC. In fact, 15% of adults in the Melrose/Mott Haven area where the center is opening have been diagnosed with diabetes ranking in 7th in the city. The Diabetes Relief Center South Bronx brings health equity to an area which has long been dominated by some of the highest rates of diab Continue reading >>
