FAQs from DAMAC Hills 2 (Akoya) patients
What is a healthy cholesterol level?
+
For most adults, target LDL is under 3.0 mmol/L; under 1.8 if you already have cardiovascular disease or diabetes. We personalise targets based on your overall risk.
Do I really need a statin?
+
Not always. If your 10-year cardiovascular risk is below 10% we usually try lifestyle first. Above that, the evidence for statins is excellent and we explain the trade-offs honestly.
Can you visit my home in DAMAC Hills 2 (Akoya)?
+
Yes — a British-trained GP can visit you at home, hotel or office anywhere in DAMAC Hills 2 (Akoya), usually within 60–90 minutes for urgent issues. Reviews for high cholesterol are typically booked in advance so we have time for a proper consultation.
