Dr El-rifai showed so much care for my diabetes. He has shown he is very aware of the information in my chart. I’m currently 61 years old and I have been treated for diabetes since I was 35 with no real success. I have been treated by Dr El-rifai for a very short time and he has been able to bring my A1C from 8.1 to 7.5 I feel that is great success. I can feel more confident that I’m under the care of a doctor that is able to help me.
