Are you living with diabetes, high cholesterol or other heart problems?
Diabetes and Cardiovascular Wellness appointments at Bastyr Center for Natural Health offer a holistic, patient-centered approach to help you with these often controllable and sometimes reversible conditions.
Patients at all stages of health are welcome, from those who have prediabetes and are seeking a holistic preventive approach, to those with heart failure who want to discuss “health” in the face of disease.
Your Bastyr Center care team will take the time to get to know you as a person, answer your questions, and walk you through decisions about your health to help you feel more confident and in control of your diabetes or cardiovascular disease care.

Our nutrition teams are up to date in the latest nutrition research, helping you break it down and sift through all the internet noise to find what’s science-based and what isn’t - creating your personalized plan for diet and living.
