Diabetic Foot Surgery

What Is

Diabetic Foot Surgery

Diabetes can lead to poor blood circulation, nerve damage, and slow-healing wounds—often resulting in foot ulcers and infections. If not treated promptly, these can progress to tissue damage and even amputation. At KosmoPlus, Dr. Ankit Shah specializes in diabetic foot surgery, combining wound care, infection control, and reconstructive techniques to save limbs, relieve pain, and restore mobility.
It includes ulcer debridement, infection control, skin grafts, flap reconstruction, tendon repair, and limb salvage procedures.
