Managing the Diabetic Foot

“Most of the illustrations are in color, with a few well-produced line drawings. There is a nice glossary of commonly used abbreviations, a useful reading list, and a very helpful appendix of differential diagnosis for some of conditions associated with the diabetic foot.”  (Doody’s, 19 December 2014)

“Managing the Diabetic Foot, 3E, is the ideal go-to clinical tool for all diabetes professionals, specialist diabetes nurses and podiatrists managing patients with diabetic foot problems.”  (Kingbook73’s Medical Ebook and Video Collection, 30 September 2014)
