Why This Matters

Diabetes can hurt your feet in two ways: it damages your nerves and slows your blood flow.

This means you might not feel a cut or blister. And your body can't heal it well.

That's why diabetes is the top cause of foot amputations. But here's the good news: regular foot checks prevent 85% of them!

What We Check

Dr. Clements does a full check of your feet:

•Feeling test — We check if you can feel pressure and vibration

•Blood flow check — We feel your pulses and may use a Doppler

•Skin & nail look — We check for cuts, calluses, fungus, and cracks

•Foot shape — We look for bumps or pressure points

•Reflexes — We test your ankle reflexes

Then we give you a risk score and a plan.

How Often Should You Come?

It depends on your risk:

•Low risk — Once a year

•Medium risk — Every 6 months

•High risk — Every 1 to 3 months

Even if your feet feel fine, come regularly. Nerve damage sneaks up slowly — you won't feel it until it's bad.

Protect Your Feet Every Day

Between visits, here's what to do:

•Look at your feet every day for cuts or changes

•Never walk barefoot, even inside

•Wear shoes that fit well

•Wash and dry your feet daily

•Put lotion on — but not between your toes

•Cut nails straight across

•Call us if a wound doesn't heal in a few days

We'll teach you all of this and more at your visit!

Good Questions

Things People Ask

Can't I just check my own feet at home?

Checking at home is great — do it daily! But you can't see or feel everything. Nerve damage happens so slowly you won't notice. Some problems need special tools to find. A professional exam catches what you can't.

I just found out I have diabetes. Do I need this now?

Yes! A foot exam now gives us a starting point. The sooner we start checking, the better we can prevent problems. Book one as soon as you can.

What if you find something wrong?

If we find a problem — even a small one — we fix it fast. Most early problems are easy to treat with simple things like special shoes, pads, or creams. We take care of it before it gets big.

Does diabetes always cause foot problems?

No! With good blood sugar control, regular foot exams, and daily foot care, most people with diabetes never have serious foot problems. Prevention really works!

Is it covered by insurance?

Most insurance plans, including Medicare, cover diabetic foot exams — often at no cost to you — because they're preventive care. We'll check your coverage for you.
