Our podiatrists have received extensive training in the comprehensive management of diabetic foot care, guiding you from the initial diabetes diagnosis to the treatment of potential diabetic foot ulcers.

Diabetic foot is a serious complication of diabetes that occurs when blood sugar levels are poorly controlled over a long period. This condition can damage the nerves and blood vessels in the feet, reducing sensation and circulation. This makes the feet more vulnerable to injuries, infections, and ulceration.

Common Manifestations of Diabetic Foot:

• Slow healing and poor wound healing
• Increased frequency of infections in areas of skin damage
• Ulcers on the foot
• Dryness, cracks, and calluses on the skin
• Numbness, tingling, or abnormal sensations under the feet
• Burning sensation in the feet, especially felt at night
• Toe deformities such as hammer toes
• Cold sensation or paleness of the feet with loss of hair
• Loss of balance and overall stability

Our podiatrists are committed to providing a thorough assessment and specialized treatment for diabetic foot care. Our approach begins with a comprehensive evaluation of blood circulation and nerve sensitivity in your feet, followed by a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. We ensure comprehensive management to ensure your comfort and prevent serious complications. Our podiatrists recommend regular foot care, including careful monitoring to detect early signs of issues such as ulcers and infections. We also offer detailed biomechanical assessments to evaluate the structure and function of your feet, enabling us to provide custom-made orthotics that effectively distribute pressure and support vulnerable areas. In cases of plantar ulcers, our team implements a specific treatment plan to enhance healing and prevent future complications.

We are dedicated to providing you with the best care to maintain your mobility and quality of life despite diabetes.
