While GPs can manage mild cases, an Internal Medicine specialist or Endocrinologist provides expert care for complex diabetes management and prevention of complications.

It is high blood sugar that develops during pregnancy. It usually goes away after birth but requires careful management to protect both mother and baby.

Yes, nutritional counseling is a key part of our diabetes management program to help you make healthy food choices. Our team provides meal planning guidance tailored to your cultural preferences, lifestyle, and blood sugar goals. We address portion control, carbohydrate counting, glycemic index awareness, and practical strategies for eating out and social situations common in Dubai's dining culture.

CGM is a wearable device that measures your blood sugar levels continuously throughout the day and night using a small sensor placed under the skin. It provides real-time readings every few minutes and shows trends, helping you and your doctor understand how food, exercise, stress, and medication affect your blood sugar. CGM data is especially valuable for patients on insulin, those with hypoglycemia unawareness, or anyone wanting tighter glucose control. We help patients select, apply, and interpret CGM data as part of our comprehensive diabetes care.

Fasting during Ramadan requires careful planning for people with diabetes. The risk of hypoglycemia increases during fasting hours, and overeating at Iftar can cause spikes. We provide Ramadan-specific management plans that include medication timing adjustments, dietary guidance for Suhoor and Iftar, blood sugar monitoring recommendations, and clear criteria for when to break the fast for medical safety. We recommend consulting your diabetes specialist at least one to two months before Ramadan to prepare your personalized plan.

Diabetes complications develop gradually and can affect multiple organ systems. Early warning signs include blurred vision or vision changes (retinopathy), numbness or tingling in feet and hands (neuropathy), foamy urine or changes in urination patterns (nephropathy), persistent foot sores or slow-healing wounds (peripheral vascular disease), and chest pain or shortness of breath (cardiovascular disease). Regular screening for these complications is a core part of our diabetes care program, aiming to catch and address problems early before they become serious.
