Diabetic Foot Assessment
Diabetic Foot Care in Perth
Conditions such as diabetes predispose individuals to foot complications such as callus, ulceration, deformity, infection other health concerns. Our team of podiatrists have extensive experience in helping people with high-risk foot conditions keep their feet healthy. We are fortunate that all our podiatrists have experience working in high-risk limb salvage teams within our public hospitals.
Regular assessment and treatment by a podiatrist are vital to ensure ongoing mobility and prevention of long-term foot complications. Although treatment involves general foot care, part of the management of high-risk feet includes regular neurological and vascular assessment as well as footwear and foot care education. It is essential to diagnose vascular and neurological anomalies so that preventative and management strategies can be implemented. At times we may refer you for further testing if required.
