Podiatry

What is Podiatry?

Podiatry is the field concerned with the health and rehabilitation of pathologicalconditions—
—that affect the feet. It is an independent profession within the healthcare sector,
which supports many medical specialties, and is entirely distinct from that of a podiatrist, which
refers to a medical specialty. The podiatrist provides both preventive and therapeuticcare ,
using specialized methods for lower extremity conditions, in collaboration
with the relevant medical specialty treating the condition for which the patient was referred.
His contribution to the management of diabetic foot can be considered particularly significant,
in collaboration with the treating endocrinologist.
