Dear Valued Patient,
Here at Lighthouse Foot and Ankle Center, our goal is to keep high-risk patients out of the Emergency Room and Urgent Care and stay infection and ulcer free.
High-risk patients include those with diabetes with neuropathy and poor circulation, history of amputation, infection or ulceration.
Ways we can help:
Triage with Telehealth - a phone call or message via our patient portal
Live Telehealth visit via the patient portal with video
Office appointment with Dr. Kurlanski
Ways to stay health and safe at home:
Eat a well-balanced diet
Check feet and moisturize daily
Manage stress - meditate, call a friend, read, exercise, hydrate
Avoid bathroom surgery - DO NOT CUT NAILS OR CALLUSES
If you presently have an ulcer, we want to hear from you!!
Sincerely,
Lighthouse Foot and Ankle Center Team
