Its first time I diagnosed diabetes (sugar) and met doctor to know how to control this with medicine and he suggested me to start insulin from day-1 without confirming either it can be controlled by medicine or not. Later when I insisted him for medicine then, he wrote 1 medicine and within 3 days my sugar level has came down by 50 points. My balance diet and workout has also helped in reducing sugar. Later when I met him with report, he asked me to continue medicine but again saying that soon I need insulin. ** ***** ** *** *** ***** ** * ********** ** ***** **** ******** *** *** ******* ** ** ********** ******** When I asked, either I have type-1 or type-2 diabetic, ** *** *** ********** ** *** **** ***** ****** ********* *** was telling me % of beta cell remain in my body without any test.

Doctor is very friendly and patient. Thoroughly discusses case in detail before suggesting treatment..also very experienced .. would definitely recommend. however the front desk needs and/or practo needs to do better appointment management..the doctor typically takes 20-30mts for each patient so you would end up waiting long unless you can call , coordinate with front desk and go..
