DIABETIC FOOTCARE

At the Foot & Ankle Clinic we take pride in our ability to offer the best care to our diabetic patients. More than 21 million people have diabetes in the US (CDC, 2015). Diabetes can lead to severe foot problems including infection. Poor circulation and loss of sensation can make diabetics more susceptible to infection and ulcers. Regular care and appointments at our office can help prevent further problems or limb loss. For more information about diabetic footcare, visit the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.
