Supporting actively everyone in need is what we know how to do best. It has been a great pleasure for us to visit the premises of the Cyprus Third Age Observatory, yesterday afternoon. Dr Savvas Ioannou, Diabetologist and Member of YGIA Polyclinic Board, offered his consultation and health services to approximately 25 members of the Observatory. He was happy to answer to their questions, measure their blood pressure, discuss with them important issues about the correlation of diabetes and nutrition, as well as ways to keep their sugar levels stable. Dr Ioannou was accompanied by our nurse George Adamou, who measured the sugar level of all Cyprus Third Age Observatory members that were present.
