Summary

This study investigates whether giving endocrinologists (diabetes specialists) a one-week intensive training program helps them manage type 2 diabetes more effectively. The training includes a hospital stay experience and hands-on patient management. Researchers will compare blood sugar control in patients treated by trained versus untrained doctors to see if the program makes a difference.
