I took my mother to Dr Uzma a an endocrine specialist in Hyderabad some 10 months back . We had a lot of trouble getting her sugar levels under control. She took time to understand my mother's history and answered all the relevant questions. Without a doubt she is very knowledgeable and spent time understanding our concerns and suggested options and what are the pro and cons of these options . She was patient with us never made us felt hurried during the consultation. She was always sympathetic to our concerns . Happy to say that my mother's diabetes is currently well controlled. She

She is kind and polite, a rarity in today’s world. At the same time a very sensible person. Please explain every concern and symptom of yours and she will listen with all ears and attention and will give you ample time. But don’t try to show your Google knowledge to her. She explains why she is giving the concerned medicine and its benefits and side reactions if any. She is very knowledgeable, No unnecessary tests, she even explained to us why she is getting the particular test, and depending on the results she may ask for more tests if required. She treated my thyroid and diabetes , both of which are under control now.

I accompanied my cousin to her clinic for Type 1 Diabetes control with very high Hba1c, After taking all the relevant history about symptoms and medication including family history she pointed out his wrong technique of insulin injection which he had been practicing for some years. Her support staff demonstrated the correct way of taking Insulin to us.After correction of insulin technique not only his sugars got controlled but now even his insulin dose has been reduced.
She is undoubtedly the best doctor in the town. Thanks Dr Khan.

After visiting n numbers of Endocrinologist, I am finally at peace with Dr Uzma. I was really suffering from uncontrolled Diabetes , my H1bC was very high and most of the time sugar used to be 300 to 400 . But now after visiting her from last 6 month it has come in the rang off respectable 150 to 200 and H1bC is also near normal. I will fully and whole heartedly recommend her. She is very detailed oriented and her yes means yes and no means no and she is friendly but at the same time very firm.
Thanks

I live in US and consulted couple of doctors on my Hashimotos/Goiter/Hypothyroid issues. Although the treatment was not complex, no one provided clear explanations and responded patiently to the questions i had except Dr. Uzma. Last year when i visited her, i was very impressed by the way she listened to my concerns patiently and provided response and so this year even though Dr.Uzma changed her hospital, we searched for her and consulted her as followup. I certainly recommend anyone with thyroid problems and who needs explanations on their health issues to visit Dr. Uzma.

She explained everything clearly and concisely and ensured I understood my diagnosis and treatment options.

Very polite and she is highly experienced. I am suffering from acute thyroiditis since last 7 months, I have consulted with number of doctors of reputed hospitals in this duration but got the right treatment and suggestion from Dr.Uzma only. I was on very strong and heavy medication earlier but there was no improvement at all. When I consulted with Dr. Uzma she explained in detail about the illness and corrected the line of treatment. She confidently stopped all the unnecessary medicines. I am very thankful to her.
