How we can support you
Why Oviva?
At Oviva, we work with you to develop a plan tailored to your needs. You can join a peer support group or opt for one-to-one support from a specialist diabetes coach to support you in making changes.
Getting started
First, we will discuss your medical history. We’ll ask questions about your eating habits, your everyday life and your environment to understand more about who you are. Together we’ll set realistic goals and a plan to achieve them over the course of the programme.
I’m really glad I had the opportunity to have an Oviva coach and app, and wouldn’t have become so much healthier without you.”
Fran, 58, Oviva Diabetes Support participant from Devon.
