I needed more information on previous test results because some were abnormal and high. She told me to just drink more water. I'm still upset about this because my glucose level is high and the only thing she said is to drink more water. I googled info regarding high glucose and it's serious. The doctor didn't take it seriously.

Dr Sultan listened to me, she asked very good questions and didn't rush me. (This is why I decided to leave my last GP, he engaged in "drive by" meetings and did not explain things well). I was delighted to be with an md who listened and explained things in a gentle, clear way. She questioned the meds I'm taking and created a plan to see if I could lower doses on two of them! I could not be happier with her!
