title: A diabetic service for adolescents.
abstract: Lothian provides a personalized service to adolescents with diabetes in which the DNSA plays a unique and pivotal role. The service is expensive in terms of the time it requires, but it is hoped that both the patients and the service will reap the benefits in years to come with healthier patients, less complications, reduced intervention and less expensive treatments.
