Watch this vlog of a young adult with type 1 diabetes as she takes you along to her first appointment at the Baylor Young Adult Diabetes Clinic. Check out how she prepares for her appointment and listen in for some advice from clinic providers on what you can expect! We know making the transition can feel overwhelming, but we hope this video helps you to feel better prepared to start young adult care.
