Dr. Ntouna Katerina is a Pathologist with a private practice in Piraeus. She specializes in the prevention, effective diagnosis, and management of metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is undoubtedly a major scourge of the modern lifestyle. Therefore, its timely and effective diagnosis will prevent the occurrence of potential complications. More specifically, this begins with recording the patient's anthropometric data (height, weight, BMI calculation, waist circumference), blood pressure regulation, and lipid profile (HDL-LDL cholesterol, triglycerides). 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 latter is primarily responsible for the development and manifestation of cardiovascular events. Finally, the proper management of diabetic ulcers is crucial. 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.
