Dr. Blevens has done a wonderful job of marketing himself to other physicians as the 'best diabetes doctor in Austin'; therefore they nearly all recommend him. However, I have been to both Blevins and Fehrenkamp and there is absolutely NO comparison. First of all, Blevins won't usually see you himself-- he almost always delegates to a Physicians' Assistant, and her remedies are straight out of the textbook (no customization for the patient). Fehrenkamp not only sees you personally, but takes all the time necessary and really, really knows his stuff. He will constantly adjust your meds to make them work properly for YOU. And...maybe most importantly, he really CARES about his patients MORE than the money! Don't let his handicap fool you-- this guy is a genius when it comes to diabetes treatment!
Pros: Really knows his stuff and will spend time necessary w/ you.
Cons: Sometimes the waiting times are waaaaay too long
