Research & Publications

Internationally published in obesity & diabetes research

Dr. Iqbal's research focuses on obesity, diabetes and metabolism — the same conditions he treats every day at the clinic.

Research interests

His published work examines how modern medicines affect body weight, how "metabolically healthy" obesity still carries kidney risk, and how newer diabetes drugs can help complex metabolic conditions — knowledge he applies directly to patient care.
