Cecelia's story
BECAUSE OF CECELIA
The inspiration behind Cecelia Health
Because of one clinician, millions of lives are changed.
Cecelia, a Certified Diabetes Education and Care Specialist (CDCES), met David at a turning point in his life—after his Type 1 diabetes diagnosis at the age of 36.
Although he felt overwhelmed and frustrated, David’s connection with Cecelia was a transformative experience. She offered personalized education, support, and compassion that gave David hope in knowing he wasn’t alone in his care journey. Cecelia showed David that having diabetes was not a death sentence—he could learn to manage his condition and live an empowered, healthy life.
This inspired David (Weingard) to start a company in 2009 that would offer the same guidance to people living with diabetes and other cardiometabolic conditions. Now, Cecelia Health is a national virtual specialty medical practice delivering personalized, integrated cardiometabolic care that helps people achieve their health goals.
Cecelia’s compassionate legacy lives on through an expert clinical network of highly skilled, knowledgeable, and compassionate professionals empowered by an organization that is deeply committed to keeping human engagement at the core of the healthcare experience.
