Outstanding in every way! Dr Porter’s knowledge, expertise and kindness led to a drop in average glucose levels from 8.9 to 6.1 in 15 months. No medication, just carefully monitored changes to diet and eating habits. A great team at Opus Biological. Thank you so much!

Dr Porter is very impressive. He is highly professional, very effective and compassionate. At a point where my confidence was low following a collapse while out walking he assured me “ we will get to the bottom of this.” 3 months later both confidence and health have returned.
