Living with diabetes requires ongoing care, education, and support, not just prescriptions. At Millennium Park Medical Associates in Greenwood Village, Dr. Farah Khan provides comprehensive diabetes management that helps you maintain healthy blood sugar levels, prevent complications, and live actively despite your diagnosis. Whether you're newly diagnosed or seeking better diabetes control, our Denver Tech Center practice delivers personalized care focused on your long-term health.
With over 37 million Americans living with diabetes and millions more at risk, quality care matters. Our Greenwood Village location provides convenient access to expert diabetes management, including A1C testing. We provide meticulous attention to detail and help patients develop a plan to manage their diabetes.
Convenient Loop Location – Our Denver Tech Center office makes frequent diabetes management appointments accessible without disrupting your work schedule or requiring extensive travel time.
Integrated Primary Care – We manage diabetes alongside your other health conditions, preventing medication conflicts and addressing complications early. By juggling multiple specialists or conflicting treatment plans, everything is coordinated under one roof.
A1C Testing – We draw labs in house and send out to universal, in netwrok lab facilities for faster results, and fewer follow up visits.
Personalized Care Approach – We believe successful diabetes management relies on understanding your lifestyle, diet, exercise habits, and barriers to care. Rather than one-size-fits-all protocols, we create personalized diabetes management strategies that actually work for your life.
Diagnostic Testing & Monitoring – Complete evaluations including fasting glucose tests, A1C measurements, and ongoing monitoring to track your blood sugar control over time.
Personalized Treatment Plans – Whether you need oral medications such as metformin or lifestyle modifications, we create plans tailored to your needs. For patients requiring insulin, we provide education and ongoing support to ensure optimal blood sugar control with minimal side effects.
Nutritional Counseling – Practical guidance on meal planning, carbohydrate counting, and making sustainable dietary changes that improve blood sugar levels without feeling restrictive.
Prevention & Screening – Proactive care to prevent or catch diabetes complications early, including cardiovascular assessments, kidney function testing, neuropathy screening, and foot care education.
Ongoing Support & Adjustments – Diabetes evolves, and so does your treatment. Regular follow-ups (typically every 3-4 months) help us track progress and refine your strategy until you feel confident and empowered.

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition where your body doesn't produce insulin, typically diagnosed in childhood or young adulthood. Type 2 diabetes develops when your body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn't produce enough, usually appearing later in life and often linked to lifestyle factors. Type 1 requires insulin therapy, while Type 2 often starts with oral medications and lifestyle changes, though some patients eventually need insulin. Both types require consistent blood sugar monitoring and management to prevent complications.
Appointments typically include blood sugar review (we'll check your blood glucose and order A1C testing), medication assessment to evaluate if your current treatment is working or needs adjustment, lifestyle discussion about diet, exercise, and challenges you're facing, complication screening including foot exams, blood pressure checks, and kidney function tests, and goal setting with adjustments to your diabetes management plan. We initially schedule follow-ups every 2-3 months, extending to every 3-4 months once your diabetes is well controlled.
If you're newly diagnosed or adjusting medications, plan for appointments every 1-3 months until blood sugar stabilizes. Once well controlled, most patients require follow-up every 3-4 months. More frequent visits may be necessary if you're experiencing complications, significant blood sugar fluctuations, or medication side effects. We also recommend annual comprehensive diabetic exams, including dilated eye exams by an ophthalmologist.
While we can't technically "cure" Type 2 diabetes, many patients achieve remission through significant lifestyle changes, including weight loss, dietary modifications, and regular exercise. Some people maintain normal blood sugar levels without medication after losing 10-15% of body weight. However, diabetes management remains important even during remission; the condition can return if healthy habits aren't maintained.
Yes, Millennium Park Medical Associates welcomes new patients seeking diabetes management. Call our Greenwood Village office at (720) 928-5446 to schedule an appointment. Bring current medications, recent lab results if available, and your glucose meter if you're already monitoring at home.
