Diabetic shoes are specially constructed to protect your feet.
They are also "extra–depth" to accommodate special inserts which are
custom made. Special features and materials combine to provide your
feet with extra protection they need. Diabetics are prone to getting
infections and ulcerations. These shoes help prevent these problems
and many more. Medicare has shown that by providing proper foot wear
they have helped decrease the amount of amputations in the United
States by 85%.
Medicare plus secondary insurance will pay 100% for one pair of
diabetic shoes and 3 pairs of custom inserts per calendar year. The inserts
are made of a soft spongy material which only lasts for a few months.
Our office carries the #1 diabetic shoes in the country. Please go
on to their website@www.Doctorcomfort.com or www.anodyneshoes.
com and you will see 100s of shoes from which to choose.
In order to qualify for this program you must first make an
appointment and come into our office for an examination. We then
perform a digital scan of your feet and measure your feet. Your order
is then sent through electronically and the shoes arrive in about three
weeks.
If you have any foot problems, issues and questions,
