"The practice of endocrinology is one of the most rewarding fields in medicine. I enjoy helping patients understand and play an active role in managing their chronic disease. Diabetes is a unique disease, as everything patients do in day-to-day activities can affect the outcome. Therefore it is important to help patients become a partner in managing their health." - Lamice El-Kholy, MD
