Diabetic foot

Prescription and insurance cover, even from Sontheim an der Brenz

Nerve damage removes the foot's early warning signal, pain. A small pressure point can then go unnoticed until it has already become a wound. That is why doctors in Landkreis Heidenheim prescribe complex podiatric treatment as a health insurance benefit, for patients from Sontheim an der Brenz just as much as from Memmingen itself.

We work with a reduced risk of injury, check skin, nail folds and pressure points at every appointment, and report any concerns back to the referring practice without delay.

Hygiene

A sterile instrument set for every patient

With nail fungus in particular, thorough reprocessing is essential, as spores survive simple disinfection. That is why every instrument is cleaned, thermally disinfected and sterilised after each appointment before it is used again.

You can read more about our hygiene concept on the Hygiene page.

What is the difference between podiatry and cosmetic foot care?

You can find more on our mobile foot care page or by calling 089 15880714.
