She also specializes in the therapeutic management of patients with diabetes mellitus. Emphasis is placed on the early diagnosis of diabetes-related complications that may arise, such as diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy, as well as early atheromatosis.

The goal is to achieve optimal glycemic control in diabetic patients through the provision of specialized diets, nutritional counseling, self-monitoring diaries, and education on the correct use of insulin pens. It is noteworthy that home-based education by specialized personnel is available without any financial burden.
