we are gonna conduct a seminar and our topic is about nurse diabetologist, i searched the web and i found out that a diabetologist is a physician. from what i know, we are only able to conduct topics within the nursing field and i think we kind of overlap.... i think the right term is Diabetes specialist nurse (DSN).... i need confirmation so that i could reason out the problem about our topic..... thanks!
