When you are diagnosed with diabetes, you need expert foot & ankle care.

Varicose veins, poor circulation and diabetes can lead to foot problems. Approximately 15 percent of diabetic patients develop foot ulcers or open wounds. Some even suffer foot amputations, many of which are preventable with proper foot care. Older patients are also vulnerable to poor circulation, decreased sensation and impaired healing. Fortunately, diabetes care is a big part of what we do at Raleigh Foot & Ankle Center.

Prevention is still the best cure.

The best way to prevent diabetes is by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, eating properly, getting regular exercise and maintaining a healthy body weight. There are ways to prevent diabetic foot complications, too. We can show you how to prevent infection from nail and skin problems, help you with diabetic shoes and give you the benefits of doctor-supervised foot and nail care in a clean, safe environment.
