   Diabetic Management in Primary Care

   Welcome to episode 12 of the CAMC Institute for Academic Medicine's Health Matters Podcast! Our host, Sheylan Spencer, DO, sits down with Madonna Patricia Gribble, DO, of the CAMC Family Medicine Center for an engaging conversation that bridges clinical expertise with real-world patient care. Dr. Gribble shares practical examples, including how small, overlooked symptoms can signal larger health issues and why early, thoughtful intervention often changes long-term outcomes. The discussion highlights real patient scenarios, such as navigating chronic conditions, addressing lifestyle factors that quietly undermine health and helping patients move from confusion to clarity in their care plans. Dr. Gribble also emphasizes the importance of listening — both to patients and to the body — illustrating how individualized care leads to better trust and results. Together, Dr. Spencer and Dr. Gribble explore prevention, education and the human side of medicine, offering listeners clear takeaways they can apply to their own health journeys. This episode of Health Matters blends clinical insight with relatable examples, making it both informative and deeply practical.
