- Diabetes: Blood sugar monitoring, insulin management, medication review, and dietary support to reduce complications like neuropathy and kidney disease.

- Thyroid Disorders: Treatment and monitoring of thyroid disorders and referral to specialist as needed
- Obesity & Metabolic Syndrome: Medical weight loss plans, nutritional counseling (referral to counseler), and evaluation of hormonal or metabolic contributors.
