Dr. Amira Ibrahim, MD

My name is Michael Powell, I’m 47, and I’ve lived with diabetes since my teens, facing toe amputations, septic shocks, kidney issues, strokes, and neuropathy. Many clinicians left me overwhelmed, but Dr. Amira Ibrahim changed that.What stood out most: In the hospital for a toe amputation, she sat with me, clearly explained how diabetes affected my body, and how we could prevent further harm. She linked blood sugar management to my risks.Simple, effective guidance. She put me on a regimen—medication and lifestyle changes—that I could actually follow. For the first time in decades, my blood sugar has stayed steady.Impact on my health : Since starting the plan, my glucose is more stable, I feel better, and I’m more capable in daily life. This has boosted my confidence and outlook.Her approach to care: She is passionate, patient, empathetic, and honest. It’s meaningful to feel seen and supported by someone who truly cares.
