Explanation

I had been seen by Dr Frankel at the London Medical Hospital in Marybourne, London. I have to say, of all the many consultants I have seen over the past 30yrs, none of them have come close to the care and attention I received from Dr Frankel. He was meticulous in examining my past medical history, my current state of health and recommendations to manage my health going forward. Clearly he is a a true expert in the area of diabetics and kidney disease. I am so grateful and fortunate to have been referred to him!!

National Guidelines on the Use of SGLT2 inhibitors in people with kidney disease

It is really important that people with kidney disease are offered the treatments that slow down the progression of their disease and reduces harm over time. There are excellent treatments and one of these treatments is a group of drugs known as the SGLT2 inhibitors. I led with a colleague from Oxford and national group of experts that defined how we should use these drugs in people with kidney disease. Do please look at chapter 6 on this interactive guideline site which is an easy to read description of the problem and how these drugs can be used safely to help people with kidney disease receive better outcomes.
