Type 2 diabetes is a serious, life-threatening condition. But prediabetes can be reversed through medical intervention and lifestyle changes. That’s exactly how Michael went from a prediabetes diagnosis and a weight of 470 pounds to losing 130 pounds — and reversing his condition.

“I realized I couldn't be ‘Big Mike’ anymore,” said Michael. “I was a former athlete with multiple surgeries on my back and knees. The weight was both theoretically and literally heavy. I was being treated for my heart and was always told my numbers were prediabetic, but no one offered any treatment solutions.”

When Michael began experiencing issues with his eyes, he met with a MercyOne Diabetes and Endocrinology Care expert. He knew it was time to make a change — not just for himself, but to set a healthy example for his kids.

“MercyOne was realistic with me — they made sure I knew this would be a marathon, not a sprint. Over two years, they celebrated my progress, which kept me motivated to continue.”

Michael credits MercyOne for helping him change his lifestyle — and potentially saving his life.

1 in 3 Americans has prediabetes — but the good news is, it’s reversible. Take control of your health with small lifestyle changes today. Learn how: https://bit.ly/4obzl1H

Pat’s journey with prostate cancer began at age 56 — and led him to a groundbreaking treatment at MercyOne.

Thanks to the precision of CyberKnife® radiation at the MercyOne Richard Deming Cancer Center, Pat received a personalized, non-invasive treatment in just five sessions instead of the traditional 28.

In 2022, Pat became the first person in Iowa to receive CyberKnife for prostate cancer. “There’s always someone who has to be first,” he said — and he chose MercyOne for its expert team and compassionate care.

This advanced treatment is only available in Iowa at the MercyOne Richard Deming Cancer Center in Des Moines. Learn more. > https://bit.ly/4idS89i
