I highly recommend Yudith Ruiz-Arias, Nurse Practitioner, as an eyecare consultant for diabetic patients. Yudith is effective at educating and motivating patients to take charge of their diabetes self-care to avoid eye complications and other consequences of uncontrolled diabetes. As a result of the encouragement and expertise of Yudith and Dawn Russi, my Nurse Practitioner in endocrinology, I lowered my A1C significantly, cut insulin use by 50%, and lost more than 10% of my body weight. I am very grateful to these caring medical professionals.
