Doctor
Dr. Meera Iyer
Consultant Diabetologist & Physician
Practical, long-term care for diabetes and thyroid conditions.
About
I am a consultant physician focused on diabetes and endocrine care. Most of my patients live with a long-term condition, so my work is about clear plans, steady follow-up and small changes that last.
I explain reports in plain language, in English or Tamil, and involve families in care decisions.
