How Feet First Podiatry Can help with diabetic foot care

We offer comprehensive diabetic foot assessments and care to help prevent serious complications associated with diabetes.

The high blood sugar levels associated with diabetes can reduce blood flow and damage nerves in the feet, causing delayed healing and increasing the risk of infections and ulcers if left untreated.

Regular foot assessments allow us to detect early warning signs such as poor circulation, loss of sensation, or skin changes. I can provide care plans, education on daily foot care, and regular appointments to ensure your feet stay healthy.

Prioritising diabetic foot care is a crucial step in maintaining your mobility, comfort, and overall health.

Testimonials

Sarah Ampleford recommends Feet First Podiatry.

I can't recommend Feet First enough. I was made to feel so comfortable and welcome the minute I met Romy. I had such dry hard skin on my feet that I couldn't get a hold on myself. After 1 appointment my feet are so soft and no more hard skin! Romy is amazing at what she does and is such a lovely person! Highly recommended.

Pamela Kristiansson recommends Feet First Podiatry.

Romy is a miracle worker. I have psoriatic arthritis which badly affects my feet resulting in hard skin buildup in odd places. I arrive feeling every step I take and leave gliding on pillows. My appointments with Romy enable me to maintain my movement. I can’t recommend Romy highly enough xx
