Mental health stigma is a public health crisis.

Many people hesitate to seek help—not because they aren’t struggling, but because they fear being judged, misunderstood, or labeled.

At KU Wichita Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences is where stigma ends, and compassionate care begins equally, for everyone.

You are not alone, contact us at 316-293-2647

Could a common condition be quietly affecting your health without you noticing?

One of the most frequently managed diseases in primary care is Type 2 Diabetes—many people have it for years before symptoms appear.

Early signs can include:
Fatigue or low energy
Increased thirst or frequent urination
Blurry vision
Slow-healing cuts

Why it matters:
Can damage the heart, kidneys, eyes, and nerves over time
Often caught through simple routine blood work
Early detection can greatly improve outcomes

Type 2 diabetes is common, but with early screening and proper care, it’s highly manageable.

If you are experiencing these symptoms KU Wichita Internal Medicine is here to help. Call 316-293-2622 to schedule an appointment.
