Global perspectives on diabetes

This image captures a compassionate healthcare interaction in a community clinic setting. A young African male patient, dressed in a blue t-shirt, is seated at a wooden table while a female African doctor, wearing a white lab coat, gloves, and a stethoscope around her neck, conducts a blood glucose test using a lancet and glucometer. The doctor is focused and gentle as she pricks the patient's finger, while the young man observes calmly. Medical supplies, including medication bottles and testing tools, are visible on the table. In the background, other patients and clinic staff are engaged, suggesting a supportive, attentive healthcare environment.
