From my very first phone call, after being referred by my pharmacist, the DGD has been the answer to my prayers! Dr. Akhrass and everyone at the clinic have been the best to help me in controlling my diabetes. I have had diabetes for many years and have never had the help, care and concern for my condition as I found here. This clinic runs so smoothly and they cover aspect of my needs and they are so kind and patient. I feel that finally I have a place that will take care of me and is there to meet all my needs.
