There is a rise in diabetes across the country, and the need for diabetes specialists continues to grow. To help meet demand, Dr. Raja, Board Certified Endocrinologist at Slocum-Dickson Medical Group, is now a Distinguished Full Professor for the Diabetes Fellowship Program. This one-year post-graduate program prepares fellows to become trained to provide comprehensive diabetes management.
“As a busy endocrinologist, I see firsthand the need for additional diabetes specialists,” said Dr. Dayal Raja, Endocrinologist from Slocum-Dickson Medical Group. “Joining the Diabetes Fellowship Program allows me to help train and mentor diabetes fellows to fill the need.”
Dr. Raja’s commitment to the community reaches a new milestone as he takes on the role of clinical educator. His dedication to helping the community is apparent as he adds ‘educator’ to his title. While continuing to provide expert care to his patients at Slocum-Dickson, Dr. Raja will now help shape the next generation of dialectologists in the MVHS Diabetes Fellowship Program. SDMG is proud to support Dr. Raja in this endeavor, as it aligns with our commitment to improved health and enhancing the well-being of the communities we serve through service, care, and education.
