Diabetic foot care
Regular foot checks and gentle care are especially important when you have diabetes. Changes in sensation and circulation mean that an injury may not always be painful. We provide professional nail and skin care and guidance for your daily routine.
What we consider when you have diabetes
We examine your skin, nails and areas under pressure. We also discuss your treatment, any changes in sensation and previous wounds.
We select care according to your condition and recommend your treating doctor or a diabetic foot specialist when needed.
What a visit looks like
All instruments are autoclave-sterilised; single-use and individually sealed materials are standard.
- Foot examination — skin, nails, deformities and risk zones
- Atraumatic nail treatment — burr-based technique instead of cutting
- Careful removal of calluses and hyperkeratosis
- Guidance: footwear, daily care, what to watch for at home
Regular care and monitoring
We agree the frequency of visits individually. At home, daily foot checks, skin care and suitable footwear are important.
For a new wound, blister, redness, swelling or change in foot temperature, seek medical help straight away, on the same day. Do not wait for a routine appointment or an online reply.
Frequently asked questions
How is a diabetic pedicure different from a regular one?
We adapt care to your sensation, circulation and skin condition, working gently and recommending your treating doctor when needed.
How often should I come?
The frequency depends on your foot health and risk assessment. We agree a suitable schedule after examining your feet.
Do I need a note from my endocrinologist?
Please tell us about your diabetes and current treatment when booking. Bring any medical recommendations or relevant test results you have.
My callus does not hurt. Should I still come?
Yes, a painless callus still needs assessment. Reduced sensation can make an injury difficult to notice. Do not cut the callus yourself.
