Podiatry Services
Podiatry plays a vital role in the care continuum and involves the treatment of all conditions affecting patients below the knee. Proactive follow up exams for the lower extremities improves the health and mobility of residents in senior living facilities, to include reducing the risk of falls, infections, and lower limb amputation.
Remove the burden of appointments and the cost of transporting patients
While regular podiatry exams are necessary for seniors to maintain a high quality of life, those in long-term care often have difficulty traveling to regular appointments. To answer this challenge, Go Podiatry physicians schedule weekly and biweekly appointments at the patient’s facility. During every appointment, our physicians will:
- Provide necessary treatment for preventing wounds and infections.
- Offer personalized, expert recommendations for maintaining optimum health.
- Treat infections or wounds that may become infected.
- Work to build and maintain the trust of every patient.
