A wonderful person, our knowledgeable doctor. May God keep you safe for us.
Thanks to you, my mother keeps her blood sugar under control and, thank God, she has no problems at all. May God bless you, doctor.
I am so glad I came to you for an accurate diagnosis and you did a biopsy. Otherwise I would have gone for surgery for nothing. May God help you, doctor.
A wonderful person, a wonderful doctor, may all your work be successful. The number one endocrinologist, my doctor who brought me back to life. I swear, I know no other doctor as knowledgeable as you.
We came to your appointment in Ganja. Thank you so much, doctor, there is so much progress that, God willing, thanks to you I will get rid of this weight from obesity.
I had so many problems related to my goitre — weight gain, excess hair, irritability — I was completely worn out. Thanks to you, I was almost born a second time. You helped me so much, may God bless you.
Long live people who truly love their craft and profession. May God grant you a long life, our beloved doctor. A thousand thanks to my Lord that there are wonderful people like you, doctors who do their job so worthily.
One of our most knowledgeable doctors. My mother went to see you. At first I did not believe it; I thought, was there no other doctor? I even went to her second appointment myself and asked questions. I am so glad you became my mother's doctor.
I am so glad I found you, doctor — your treatment has worked very well for my goitre too. May God protect you.

Unexplained weight gain or loss, persistent fatigue, thirst and frequent urination, swelling in the neck, palpitations, excess hair growth or menstrual irregularities may be reasons to see an endocrinologist.
We recommend bringing the results of tests and examinations from the last 6–12 months, a list of the medications you take and any previous doctors' reports.
Some tests (for example, glucose and the lipid profile) are taken fasting, while others are taken at a specific time of day. How each test should be taken will be explained to you during the visit.
No. Most nodules are benign. However, to determine the nature of a nodule, an accurate diagnosis should be made with ultrasound and, if necessary, a biopsy.
It depends on the type and stage of diabetes. In some cases lifestyle changes are enough, while in others medication or insulin therapy is needed. The decision is made individually based on test results.
