The yearly check that keeps small problems small

Diabetes quietly changes circulation, sensation and healing in your feet. A comprehensive annual assessment catches those changes early, long before they become ulcers, infections, or worse.

  • Comprehensive six-part assessment
  • Zebris pressure mapping included
  • Prevention-first, education always

Six checks, one thorough assessment

  • Circulation check

    Blood flow to your feet, checked for early signs of peripheral arterial disease.

  • Neuropathy testing

    Specialised tools test for nerve damage or loss of sensation before you'd notice it yourself.

  • Skin & nail evaluation

    Dryness, cracks, wounds, fungal infection and ingrown nails, caught while they're small.

  • Footwear assessment

    Your shoes, checked for the pressure points and friction that become ulcers.

  • Pressure & gait analysis

    The Zebris 3D system maps high-pressure zones under your feet, the exact spots to protect.

  • Education & prevention

    Personalised guidance on care, hygiene and footwear, so protection continues at home.

Four signs it's time for a check

  • You have diabetes and haven't had a foot check in the past year
  • Tingling, numbness or other changes in sensation
  • Wounds or ulcers that are slow to heal
  • Foot shape changes making footwear uncomfortable

We address the full range of diabetic foot issues: reduced circulation, neuropathy, ulcers and wounds, corns and calluses, fungal nails, ingrown toenails and Charcot foot.

Been told to get your feet checked and kept putting it off?

Almost everyone does. A foot check is undramatic: someone looks, tests the feeling and the circulation, and tells you where things stand. Knowing is easier to live with than wondering. Tell us a bit and one of our podiatrists will come back to you about what is worth doing and when.

Frequently asked questions

Why are diabetic foot assessments important?
Diabetes can affect your feet through reduced circulation, nerve damage (neuropathy) and slower healing of wounds. Regular assessments help identify problems early and prevent complications such as ulcers, infections or even amputation.
What's included in a diabetic foot assessment?
A comprehensive assessment includes a circulation check, neuropathy testing, a skin and nail evaluation, a footwear assessment, pressure and gait analysis using the Zebris 3D Gait Analysis system, and personalised education on foot care and prevention.
When should I book a diabetic foot assessment?
Book if you have diabetes and haven't had a foot check in the past year, notice changes in sensation such as tingling or numbness, have foot pain, wounds or ulcers that are slow to heal, or struggle to find comfortable footwear due to changes in foot shape.
What diabetic foot issues do you treat?
We address reduced circulation (peripheral arterial disease), diabetic neuropathy, foot ulcers and wounds, corns and calluses, fungal nail infections, ingrown toenails, and Charcot foot.
