I continue to be impressed with the staff and doctors at the Diabetes Institute. While I'd rather not have diabetes, I do and I'm delighted to have a great team guiding me. From the lab techs drawing my blood, to the nurses who take my vitals, to Dr. Trikudanathan, I am struck with their knowledge, expertise, and compassion. It is not an overstatement that I actually look forward to my appointments.Thanks the the Diabetes Institute Team!
