I cannot thank Dr Kumar enough. For what was previously 3 years of trying to get answers of my weight management, I was eventually introduced to Dr Kumar. He gave me options and found me a solution and a miracle. Not only did I lose 2 and half stone in 10 weeks, my health has improved also. I was told I had an enlarged fatty liver, that can take 2 years to reverse but going off my recent scan it no longer enlarged and less fat. This has helped improve my overall health and mental health. Dr Kumar is very attentive to my needs and has really helped me achieve the goals that I been longing for all this time. Thank You
