About

Dr. Eileen Van Diest, M.D., is a board‑certified physician in Internal Medicine and in Diabetes, Endocrinology, and Metabolism. She earned her medical degree from the University of Texas Medical School at Houston in 2006, completed an Internal Medicine residency at Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas in 2009, and finished a fellowship in Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism at Creighton University Medical Center in Omaha, NE in 2011. With more than 15 years of clinical experience, she combines rigorous academic training with a compassionate, patient‑centered approach to adult health care.

Dr. Van Diest operates a Direct Primary Care (DPC) style endocrine practice that limits enrollment to 300 patients, allowing her to spend ample time with each individual. The model eliminates insurance‑driven constraints, offering same‑day or next‑day appointments, 24/7 phone and text access, telemedicine visits, and no co‑pays or hidden fees. Her philosophy emphasizes preventive screening, chronic disease management, and personalized treatment plans that empower patients to achieve optimal health.

Beyond clinical duties, Dr. Van Diest is committed to community wellness through education and outreach, fostering a collaborative relationship with patients and local health resources.
