Diabetes is unfortunately a widespread and worldwide disease. One of the most frequent and serious complication is ulcers to the body's extremities. This may seriously impair the quality of life of those affected, frequently results in amputation of the affected joint or limb.
The Diabetes Foot Unit tries to prevent these complications by way of specialised care and rigorous and constant follow-ups with the patient.
Despite the fact that so far only a very few of these units exist, they are proven to be the best method in preventing medium-term complications.
