Diabetic feet are special feet

You only get one set of feet.

They might not be your favourite body part,  but they put up with a lot and give us a lot of benefits back.

Diabetic feet are at risk of serious complications. The main ways that diabetes can hurt your feet is poor circulation and nerve damage (neuropathy).

Proper footcare for diabetes is critical for maintaining foot health

Regular visits to a podiatrist are essential for maintaining foot health and catching potential problems early.

A podiatrist can assess circulation, nerve function, and skin integrity while providing preventative treatments such as debridement of corns and calluses.

Even if you think your feet are healthy, getting your feet checked by a podiatrist is recommended at least once a year.
