The Primary Care Diabetes Society of Australia (PCDSA) is a Society of health practitioners with an interest in primary care diabetes in Australia. The Society was established in 2015 and is a not-for-profit organisation. There are over one million people in Australia who have been diagnosed with diabetes. The majority of these people will receive their health care in the primary care setting.
