The 2017 Endocrinologists’ Guidelines for type 2 diabetes, Resource (1), is useful and relatively brief at 32 pages.
But the very best part of the Guidelines are the Algorithms (slides) on pp 24 – 32 of the pdf linked below [I’ve posted the slides on pp 2 – 10 of this post]:
TABLE OF CONTENTS Comprehensive Type 2 Diabetes Management Algorithm-page numbers refer to the PDF.

- II. Lifestyle Therapy – p 25
- III. Complications-Centric Model for Care of the Overweight/Obese Patient – p 26
