  4. Hba1c 6. 6 % Diabetologist immediately?

diabetes-icon
Hba1c 6.6 %
My Dad's Hba1c report came up 6.6. Is it a matter of concern? He is not diabetic, only takes Crestor 10 due to LDL level but now it is normal. From past 2 months he is consuming sweets and outside food in between as we had functions in the family. Should i wait for some months or consult a diabetologist immediately?
