Diabetic Foot Assessment & Diagnostics

A diabetic foot assessment in India is a complete, painless check of the nerves, circulation, pressure points and skin of your feet, designed to find damage before it becomes a wound. At Elegance Diabetic Foot & Ulcer Clinic (EDFC), you leave with a clear risk grade and a personalised plan to protect your feet.

What is a diabetic foot assessment?

A diabetic foot assessment is a structured screening that measures how well your feet sense touch and pressure, how much blood is reaching them, and where high-pressure areas could break down. It combines nerve tests, circulation checks, pressure mapping and, when needed, imaging and blood work into one clear picture of your foot health.

This matters because India now has an estimated 101 million people living with diabetes (ICMR-INDIAB, 2023), and diabetes is the leading cause of non-traumatic lower-limb amputation. Most of those amputations begin as a foot ulcer that could have been caught early, so a timely assessment at EDFC in Surat or Vizianagaram is the simplest way to stay ahead of the risk.

Who needs a diabetic foot assessment?

You should book an assessment if you have diabetes and any of the following:

• Numbness, tingling or burning in the feet
• Reduced sensation, or you cannot feel small injuries
• Cold feet, leg cramps on walking, or slow-healing cuts
• A past foot ulcer, infection or amputation
• Foot deformity, corns, calluses or a change in foot shape
• Diabetes for several years, even without symptoms

Even if your feet feel normal, every person with diabetes in India should have a professional foot check at least once a year. Non-surgical wound care and foot surgery are far easier to avoid when risks are found early.

Why choose EDFC for diabetic foot assessment in India?

EDFC is India's first chain of clinics dedicated entirely to foot care. Assessments are led by Dr. Ashutosh Shah (M.S., M.Ch.), a plastic and reconstructive surgeon with more than 22 years of experience in limb salvage and diabetic foot reconstruction. The clinic brings nerve, vascular, pressure and imaging testing under one roof, so you get a complete diagnosis and a clear plan in a single visit, with access at our Surat head office and Vizianagaram branch.
