please help
We will be renting in TV through the summer as our house is being built.
Papasw has just been diagnosed as a type 2 diabetic and we are literally just starting this journey. (2 wks. ago ) We need to put some doctors in place to monitor his sugar levels and also his Coumadin levels. We are looking for a recommendation for a good , caring, board certified primary care doctor. Our insurance provider is Cigna until Medicare kicks in in Sept. I have the names of 3 docs that take our insuance in TV. Do you have any knowledge of these 3?? Dr. Michael Glick (Lady Lake) Dr. Thumati Jagalur (TV) Dr. Nalini Yelamanchi (TV) We would welcome your recommendations. Thanks so much.... |

My wife uses Nalini Yealamanchi and is very happy. My neighbor uses Gagular and he's happy.

I have Type 2 and use Dr. Jagalur. He is an internist who also specializes in treatment of diabetes. The doctor seems concerned and if very respectful of his patients. His staff is easy to work with and keeps the atmosphere as light as possible rather than the large medical factories some of us have had to endure. I like this practice and think you will too.

Dr Jagular is our primary care dr. We've seen him only once for a get acquainted visit but really liked him.

Thank you for your recommendations of these doctors. I will try to set up appointments for us. I feel much better now.

I, as a 26 year Type II Diabetis patient, would recommend that you start off with a endocrinologist, and after initial treatments he or she may turn you over to a GP doctor. I have found that the adequacy of a GP doctor treating diabetis can be a very "iffy" thing. I have had good and I have had bad. I have had several endocrinologists over the years and my current, here in the Villages, Dr Shehzad Topiwala "Dr Topi" with Premier Medical Associates is the best I have had. He has a series of lecture and slide presentations from ground zero to advanced that he does in his office on a Saturday and they are just what you need as you start the journey.

I consider myself pre-diabetic, no meds yet but I spend a lot of time and effort on diet/nutrition and exercise. There are some good threads to read here on TOTV.
I visited Topiwala "Dr Topi" and he seems very capable, perhaps a bit clinical but maybe that's ok. I still use my primary MD "up north" as my key, but Dr. Topi did give me a couple insights that generalists can miss. Best wishes. |
