Diabetes mellitus: a study with special reference to its diagnosis and treatment by general practitioners

In this thesis an attempt has been made to show how the general practitioner may diagnose and treat his diabetic patient in the most efficient manner. In the writer's experience no other condition met with in practice demands the same degree of knowledge and patience, offers the same degree of success and earns the same degree of gratitude from the patient as does the treatment of diabetes. The co-operation of the patient is required more in this disease than in any other, and, as the diabetic is almost invariably an intelligent one, this is obtained in most cases in a whole- hearted manner.
