what people are saying about Type 1 University

Q
I just watched your class on The Other Treatments for T1D and I have to say how wonderful it was! Your presentation style is fun, knowledgeable, and understandable. Can't wait to discuss some of these approaches with my endo tomorrow. Thanks for the advice on how to approach it.
Iris CotterT1D since 2018
Thanks again for the Skype call today and for all your help.  We really have come a long way since Cate's a1c was 8… now down to 6!  You were the catalyst that helped us back to a new normal and you've been with us every step of the way since.  I am super grateful!  Diabetes may never be easy, but having the tools to successfully navigate a life without a pancreas is worth its weight in gold.
Heidi Nelson (mom of Cate)Smithfield, UT, USA
Not just superficial coverage.  This class offered a stunning range and depth.  Invaluable service.
Type1 University studenton Weight Loss for Insulin Users
"Why so much insight? Clearly he was no ordinary diabetes coach. I soon understood. Gary was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 25 years ago. He understands exactly what a blood sugar of 49 mg/dl or 300 mg/dl feels like, and this makes him approach diabetes patient care in a totally different way."
Elizabeth SnoufferLearning how to bolus for PIZZA
"Gary lives with type 1 diabetes himself, is an exercise physiologist and a Certified Diabetes Educator. All of that mixed together means that, for most people, he totally gets it. I also think he has a gift for explaining things in a way that make sense and that can be used in the real world."
Scott K. JohnsonScott's Diabetes
Good info! I hadn't known a lot of this and am already starting to use the strategies when I exercise; hopefully this will prevent the lows!
Type1 University studenton Blood Glucose Control During Sports & Exercise
"I like it Gary!  So many folks run into scenarios where they get a little education upfront, but then basically nothing after that... especially about how "things work" and how to handle changes in lifestyle, regimes, age, etc.  This is going to be a life-changing tool for so many people.  I know what you're capable of... this is going to be great!"
Jimmyfrom "Review on Diabetes Mine"
"What is great about this class [weight loss for insulin users] is you get plenty of information and guidance on how to lower insulin needs safely and get to a place where weight loss is possible and simultaneous with proper blood sugar management. You also get important information on exercise and diabetes that I feel was really valuable to hear."
Sysy Morales"The Girls Guide to Diabetes"
"Gary Scheiner's Integrated Diabetes Services has been helping Jeff and I for years via telephone. As our children grow so does the need to change their pump settings.  We download our kids pump data and once analyzed he recommend changes, helping our kids control of their blood glucose numbers.  Thank you Gary!"
JeffParentingDiabeticKids.com newsletter
"...there was so much more to learn. Like how to use temporary basal rates to cover PMS and exercise, and the advantages of dual and square boluses — tools that I’d never really employed before.", and "Type 1 University is all about strategy, though. I feel like, instead of being confused or frustrated by a slew of information, I’m learning how to pimp my diabetes — or at least my CGM."
Jacquie WojcikTypical Type 1
"My first class was titled, "Mastering Pump Therapy."  I have been pumping now since 1996 and currently wear an Animas pump. After 15 years on the pump, could this guy really teach me something new that I had not heard before? The answer was a resounding YES!! I am so thrilled and excited about what I learned last night."
