There is no such disclipline as "diabetology". Diabetes is taught to all medical students and any medical doctor can begin treatment for the disease. For expert management, one would be referred to an endocrinologist who would carefully evaluate the individual's needs, prescribe any required medications, and then further refer the individual to a certified nutritionist and a certified diabetes educator, who is usually an RN with added training in the management of the disease.

Management of diabetes is a team effort, and the diabetic him/herself is just as important a member of that team as is the M.D.
Forty years of clinical experience and a dozen years as a diabetic.
I don't think are are post grad courses. My diabetes specialists have always been endocrinologists who focus specifically on the treatment of type I diabetes.
