Diabetes-Related Foot Care

When you're managing diabetes, your first thought may not be foot care. But don't worry. That's what we're here for. At AdventHealth, we'll help catch foot-related problems early to prevent bigger issues down the road. With dedicated diabetes professionals combining advanced medical equipment and a caring touch, you’ll always have a team to lean on. Our diabetes centers always strive for the most-accurate evaluations possible using a range of tests, including:

• Dermatological Assessment
• General Inspection
• Musculoskeletal Assessment
• Neurological Assessment
• Vascular Assessment

Find the peace of mind you seek by getting answers from our qualified professionals. We can give you clarity on risk factors, the assessment process, symptoms, and everything in between. Let us provide you with the knowledge you need, so you can focus on the footpaths ahead.

Your diabetic foot condition doesn’t define you. No matter the obstacles, you refuse to let diabetes take control of your life. With nationally recognized diabetes centers and preventative education programs accredited by the American Association of Diabetes Educators for Diabetes Self-Management Education (DSME), we’re dedicated to arming you with the knowledge and tools for you to stay confident and the compassion to help you feel supported. Our proactive approach to diabetes-related foot care will help you tackle:

• Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), the narrowing of arteries, causing lack of blood flow to the legs.
• Peripheral Neuropathy, when nerves traveling to and from the brain and spinal cord are disrupted.

We can also care for your bunions, corns, calluses, hammertoes, fungal infections, dryness of the skin, ingrown toenails, and other foot discomforts and conditions. Throughout it all, we'll use a whole-person approach to comfort, guide, and support your mind and spirit. Because it's more than just diabetic foot care. It's about nurturing every part of you.

You want to focus on moving forward with your life and that's difficult to do with foot pain. But to get past diabetes-related foot issues, you’ll need personalized solutions that confront the pain with dedication and compassion. When it comes to diabetes and foot complications, sometimes surgery or amputation may be necessary. But trust in compassionate and expert care before, during, and after each procedure. You'll never be alone with access to support groups, free classes, and a nationally recognized whole-person approach to diabetes foot care. You’ll get the type of strong support that can lift your spirits and help you turn the corner.
