Why obtain equipment vitally important to the survival of your feet from untrained pharmacy employees or medical supply companies? Diabetic shoes are too important for diabetics who are at risk for shoe -related problems. At Indiana Podiatry Group, you can be certain you will receive expert evaluation by our physicians (not untrained non-medical personel), who will determine the type of shoe you really need, the type of insert that will provide you with the best protection, and whether you need special modifications to the usual prescription. We will then provide you with a highly durable shoe from the Dr. Comfort brand, who specialize specifically in diabetic shoes. Regular monitoring of shoe fit and function will also be performed by our physicians, ensuring a proper fit for the entire year the shoe is used. Compare that with non-medical sources of diabetic shoes, who will not provide you with a proper medical foot exam, often will dispense inferior quality retail shoes, and may not select the proper insert type for your specific needs. They will also not provide you with monitoring to ensure proper shoe fitting over the course of the year you will wear them.
