For individuals with diabetes, regular foot checks are essential to prevent complications and maintain foot health. It is highly recommended to have your feet examined by a qualified podiatrist at least once a year. Anne, who specialises in diabetic foot care and wound management, will conduct a thorough examination of your feet, offering personalised advice on how to properly care for them.​

 

During your foot check, your feet will be assessed for any numbness or changes in sensation, and a special machine will be used to measure blood flow, helping to assess your risk for future foot complications. Your podiatrist will provide guidance on how to minimize these risks and maintain optimal foot health.​

 

Following your appointment, a detailed report of the findings will be sent directly to your NHS GP.
