I met Dr Abraham 3 weeks ago for my Diabetes diagnosis. Dr Abraham was very clear & concise in detailing from start to finish, reasoning for my symptoms (diabetes diagnoses), how best to manage & I mentioned I am unsure what this means from a diet point of view and foods to avoid so has put me in touch with a dietician also. We had a conversation on how to still enjoy your food as a diabetic & found the experience/chat very inspirational & I went away motivated & inspired to make changes. If I ever need any urgent communication Dr Abraham is always available & it's a privilege to be able to call Dr Abraham my consultant/Dr.
