Patient Reviews
May 13, 2024
Dr. Lit treated me 2018-2021. I nearly died in 2018 as a result of a diabetic event. I had outrageously high blood sugars until Dr. Lit provided a treatment plan that brought results within 12 days. I was in physical rehab for 9 months. When I was discharged my A1C was 5.9. I am forever grateful for her care. Unfortunately, I live in another state now.
