I love Dr. Gebremehin, he is patient and polite. He is listening and helping to get your diabetes under control. My husband was going to a different Dr before my daughter told us about him. My husband never is dragging to go to him, because he never lets you feel guilty for messing up. I believe he sees his role as a supporter and not as an enforcer. I am so pleased read more

Dr. Gebremedhin is an endocrinologist specializing in diabetes and metabolism disorders. I was referred to him by my neurologist, who is in the same practice, because we've been trying to pinpoint the cause of chronic fatigue that I've experienced for much of the past year. This is a condition that can have many potential causes, including lots of endocrinological ones! I've been very pleased with Dr. Gebremedhin -- he's a good listener and very patient, taking what seems like all the time in the world to go over symptoms and getting a thorough picture of the patient's overall health and everything that may be going on with them. He ordered LOTS of tests, some fairly exotic (the phlebotomist at the lab I used had to call their main office to get the codes and instructions for some of them because they're uncommon). The results came back and I saw Dr. Gebremedhin to find out what they were. Again, he was very patient and thorough about explaining what the results mean. As a result of the tests it was possible to rule out numerous causes of the fatigue I've been experiencing and narrow it down to only a few possibilities. I've started treatment for one of them and feel confident that we're on the right track to figuring this out and getting back to being my usual energetic self! I particularly like that Dr. Gebremedhin is being conservative about prescribing and isn't just throwing meds at my symptoms. I'm currently taking quite a few meds for other conditions (like they say, aging ain't for sissies) and really want to keep it all down to the essential minimum. Meanwhile, I'm going to give this first treatment a try and will be returning to see him in a couple of months, hopefully with good results to report! If you want a careful, thorough endocrinologist, I can recommend Dr. Gebremedhin. You can see more about his background on his website. Dr. Gebremedhin is originally from Ethiopia, but also trained at Loma Linda in California before coming to Kansas City. He does have a bit of an accent, but speaks slowly and clearly and makes sure you understand everything he's saying. I'm very pleased to have found him, and, as I said, I'm feeling very encouraged that there's a solution to this very annoying fatigue issue! read more

FINALLY A doctor who LISTENS to the patient and doesn't just look at test results. HIGHLY recommend him if you have thyroid issues.

Love Dr. Gebremedhin! He is very thorough, very patient and takes the time to go through everything with you. He has an accent but he is easy to understand and his staff is great. Very glad my GP referred me to him! read more

Dr Gebremedhin is my endocrinologist for life. He is very polite and truly cares about his patients. He is extremely thorough in his approach to my health problems. My diabetes is now under control and I have fewer low blood sugar attacks. He has helped me to understand what I should eat, and the effects that certain foods have on my body. He has also helped me with my weight problem. He is the only doctor I look forward to seeing. I highly recommend him if you think you have diabetes or any other endocrine issue. read more
