People with diabetes need specialized foot care due to an increased likelihood of complications such as nerve damage, poor blood circulation, and heightened susceptibility to infections. A minor injury can escalate into a severe problem if not adequately addressed. Therefore, periodic assessments are crucial for anyone living with diabetes.
Our diabetic foot assessments are exhaustive, utilizing a variety of advanced
diagnostic tools to evaluate your condition:
These tests determine the integrity of the
nerves in
your feet, identifying areas of diminished sensation that are more susceptible
to unnoticed injuries.
Utilizing Doppler ultrasound and other
non-invasive
tests, we measure blood flow to the feet, identifying areas of reduced
circulation that may compromise healing..
A detailed examination is conducted to identify any early signs of ulcers or other skin conditions that require immediate attention.
Given that diabetes is a chronic condition, long-term care plans may be necessary. We schedule regular follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and make adjustments to your treatment plan, ensuring that your feet remain as healthy as possible.
