Dr. Vijay Prasad

A 65-year-old retired schoolteacher from a rural Tamil Nadu village, with limited financial means, had uncontrolled type 2 diabetes for 20 years and developed severe neuropathy. Dr. Prasad initiated a low-cost insulin regimen combined with community-based walking groups. After six months, her HbA1c dropped from 11.2% to 7.8%, and she regained sensation in her feet.

A 42-year-old pregnant woman at 24 weeks gestation was referred to Dr. Prasad with gestational diabetes. Using continuous glucose monitoring and personalized diet planning, she maintained optimal blood sugar levels throughout pregnancy and delivered a healthy baby boy at full term without complications.

An 8-year-old boy from an affluent family in Chennai was diagnosed with MODY (Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young) after presenting with mild hyperglycemia. Genetic testing confirmed the diagnosis, and Dr. Prasad successfully managed his condition with low-dose sulfonylureas instead of insulin, allowing him to continue his competitive swimming training.

A 50-year-old auto-rickshaw driver with pre-diabetes and financial constraints participated in Dr. Prasad's innovative 'Diabetes Reversal Program' through dietary modification and interval walking. After three months, his glucose tolerance normalized, and he avoided progressing to diabetes despite his high-stress occupation.

A 28-year-old software engineer from Bangalore, previously healthy, presented with sudden unexplained weight loss and excessive thirst. Dr. Vijay Prasad diagnosed him with type 1 diabetes after discovering ketoacidosis. The patient learned insulin management through a mobile app recommended by Dr. Prasad and returned to work within two weeks with stable glucose levels.
