Diabetic Foot Care

Diabetic Foot Care Specialist 

If you suffer from diabetes, you probably understand the risks involved with small wounds, blisters or other injuries. Major medical issues can arise from the smallest scratch or blister. In diabetic patients, these small wounds can turn into skin and bone infections, abscesses, gangrene, deformities, charcot foot, and possibly amputation. The last thing we want is a situation where amputation is even an option. With McDermott Podiatry, feel confident you have a doctor on your side with the experience, skills, and patient dedication you need for diabetic foot care. Give us a call today to schedule your next visit at any of our 3 local offices. We look forward to providing the diabetic foot care you deserve.

The Importance of Routine Check Ups 

Even if your feet aren’t bothering you, no wounds, blisters, or other injuries are present, it is still a good idea to have Dr. McDermott evaluate your feet. It is important to identify problems early to prevent further, more severe complications from developing. We recommend diabetic patients have their feet checked annually by our podiatrist for full feet examinations.
