Diagnosis and care
How we treat diabetic foot care, wounds, and circulation problems in Mount Juliet.
Step 1 · Diagnosis
We check the skin, nails, pulses, temperature, and the feeling in your feet using simple tests. We look at foot shape and pressure points, measure blood flow when needed, and examine any wound closely. X-rays and lab tests help find infection or bone involvement, and we work with vascular specialists for circulation testing.
Step 2 · Treatment
Care includes a full foot exam, safe nail and callus care, moisturizing advice, and help with shoes and therapeutic inserts. Wounds are cleaned and treated with special dressings, offloading boots, compression, and advanced wound care. Infections are treated quickly with the right medicine, and we coordinate with your primary doctor to control blood sugar.
For severe infection, poor blood flow, or deformity that keeps causing wounds, we work with vascular surgeons and our foot and ankle surgeons on procedures that restore blood flow, remove infected tissue, or reshape the foot. Our goal is to save the limb and keep you walking.
