Neuropathy and ABI screening

Nerve damage and reduced circulation are the two things that turn a minor foot problem into a serious one, and both can be measured in a few minutes. Screening for them is what allows prevention rather than reaction.

What's Involved

Monofilament and vibration testing — Objective measurement of protective sensation in the feet.
Ankle-brachial index — A non-invasive pressure comparison that detects arterial disease.
Risk stratification — A clear risk category that sets how often your feet should be checked.

When to Come In

Numbness, burning, or tingling — Symptoms in the feet, often worse at night.
Diabetes for several years — Risk rises with duration regardless of symptoms.
Leg pain when walking — Cramping that stops with rest, which suggests arterial disease.
