Dr. Sarita Bajaj, Endocrinologist, Director and Head of Medicine, Motilal Nehru College, Allahabad will discuss whether glucometer readings give confirmation of diabetes in this video. Glucometer reading is a screening test, it is not the confirmation of diabetes.

She will further discuss about diagnosing diabetes.
