Diabetic Gastric Emptying Abnormalities (and sometimes normal) - Part 1
Almost nobody feels comfortable managing DELAYED gastric emptying (gastroparesis) and very few medical providers even think about RAPID gastric emptying in their diabetic patients. Even if you send these patients to GI specialists, your blood sugar co-management of these patients can be heavily impacted by these issues. Is delayed gastric emptying always a bad thing? When your patient has upper GI symptoms, how often is it a gastric emptying abnormality? Time for some answers.

Customer Reviews
Love it.
Love this podcast. Opinions, humor, and knowledge is on point. Nutrient dense 10 minutes of wisdom. But maybe put down the iron for a second and put out a new episode… just saying.
Amazing!
Dr. Porat is a wealth of knowledge and a pleasure to listen to!!
Explains the “why”
Dr. Porat is easily one of the best physicians I’ve had the pleasure of learning from as a resident. He has a knack fir making things memorable because he teaches us the “why” behind the things that we do instead of just blurting out algorithms. He is also humble and admits that there are more ways than his. Great educational resource, fun to listen to, memorable. My only request would be for more episodes!
