In conjunction with World Diabetes Day, the Diabetes Unit of Colombo National Hospital organised a special medical session, offering patients a unique opportunity to receive expert advice on managing diabetes.
The session was led by Consultant Endocrinologist at the National Hospital of Sri Lanka and President of the Diabetes Association of Sri Lanka, Dr. Manilka Sumanathilaka and renowned Endocrinologist Dr. Uditha Bulugahapitiya alongside other specialist doctors.
Sixty patients, selected for having high HbA1c levels, participated in this clinic.
During the session, they received invaluable guidance on how to better manage their condition, including personalised recommendations on lifestyle changes, medication adjustments, and monitoring techniques to help bring their blood sugar levels under control.
The event was part of ongoing efforts to raise awareness about diabetes and provide essential support to those affected by the disease.
