Loved meeting Dr. Attar with my type 1 son. He had great advice and suggestions, and even got my son to put on his dexcom for the first time. Will recommend him 1000%.

Dr. Attar is smart, kind and one who literally practices what he preaches. My son has Type 1 diabetes and we have learned so much about managing this disease from Dr. Attar. From the science to food and fitness advice, the man clearly knows his area of practice, and we are so grateful to know him.

I went to see Dr. Attar to get help with managing my Type 1 diabetes. Specifically, to get help with following Dr. Richard Bernstein’s approach to managing diabetes using a low carb diet. He is VERY knowledgeable with this approach and offered me tips and recommendations that have been really beneficial to me. He spent a lot of time with me and was very thorough.
Dr. Attar is a type 1 diabetic himself and has been thriving for over a decade. He has achieved hemoglobin A1c levels around 4.8% for years, and gets the same results with his patients. He believes all diabetics are entitled to normal, non-diabetic blood sugars and A1c. This equates to A1c at or below 5.0%, and average blood sugars around 83mg/dL. Blood sugars do not need to spike, even immediately after meals. Dr. Attar follows Dr. Richard Bernstein's method for achieving this. While studying for his medical degree Dr. Attar spent 3 days shadowing Dr. Bernstein. Read more about that here.
Dr. Attar incorporates the latest diabetes technology in his treatment of diabetes such as continuous glucose monitoring. These are very small devices that are worn which transmit blood glucose to a phone or other device 24/7. Dexcom CGM is a very popular device like this. Dr. Attar is an expert at reviewing CGM reports, he can help you get set up with them. These are an incredibly useful tools in managing blood sugars, especially reviewing Dexcom Clarity reports. Dr. Attar's patients achieve flat lined, normal, non-diabetic blood sugars in the 80s, just like him.
Dr. Attar works with all individuals with diabetes including T1, T2, prediabetes, LADA, and children with diabetes. He is an expert in low-carb, keto, and paleo diets. Many individuals with autoimmune T1 diabetes have other autoimmune diseases like Hashimoto's thyroiditis, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or others. Dr. Attar treats all of these conditions together with diabetes.
