Diabetes Doctor in Jammu
Dr. Anil Kumar Dhar manages Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes at his clinic on Canal Road, Jammu: regular HbA1c tracking, fasting blood sugar monitoring, a diet plan built around what you actually eat, insulin adjustment when it is needed, and long-term prevention of complications.
What diabetes care involves here
Diabetes is managed over years, not in one visit. The clinic tracks HbA1c (the three-month average of your blood sugar) at regular intervals, checks fasting and post-meal sugar, reviews your medicines and adjusts insulin doses when readings call for it. Diet planning is personalised to what you eat.
Just as important is long-term prevention of complications. Diabetes can affect the heart, kidneys, eyes and feet when sugar stays high for years, and the doctor advises which checks are due, which can help catch problems early. That is the point of regular follow-up.
Who should come
Anyone already diagnosed with diabetes who wants one doctor to follow their control over time. Anyone with symptoms that suggest it: unusual thirst, passing urine often, tiredness, blurred vision, wounds that heal slowly, or unexplained weight loss. And anyone with a strong family history who wants to be screened; the general check-up includes fasting and post-meal blood sugar.
What to bring
Your glucometer log if you keep one, recent HbA1c and blood reports, the medicines or insulin you use with their doses, and a note of any low-sugar episodes. If your visit includes a fasting test, ask the clinic when you book how long to fast and what to do about your diabetes medicines or insulin that morning; skipping a meal while on them can drop your sugar too low, so do not decide this alone.
The pharmacy on site
Prescribed medicines and insulin are available from the clinic's own pharmacy immediately after the consultation, so a change in dose does not mean a second trip.
