I agree 100%. I have seen her as well and she is fine and kind and whatever yep, but she is also a normal Thai doctor who can do tests and describe medicines when values seem off. But there is barely anything useful about diet or exercise like you mentioned which is like 80%+ of managing diabetes. I need someone more specialized and knowleagble than this, I will keep looking, perhaps try contacting Dr Hawkins at CM Mediclinic - any western trained doctor at this point will make me excited to try. I will let you know if I find someone good in Chiang Mai and please do the same for me, perhaps we can help each other.
