All you can really do is ask your current Endo and then go from there. It may be a trial and error situation. When my brother was at that point our child endo recommended a guy for my brother. My brother went for 2 appointments and never again because the guy was so dry and was basic and to the point. He wouldn't talk about anything but diabetes and then shipped him right out of the office. So since I was still at the child endo, I asked for a new doctor for my bro and he reccommended a new female that came to the area. Now, we both go to her and she is great.

Also, if you happen to tell us where you are at, we can maybe recommend some doctors in that area if someone on here happens to go there.

I got my Endo off the "Find a Doctor" link on Minimed.com.
