Podiatrists treat patients with diabetes, as proper medical care can prevent or relieve the symptoms of diabetic foot syndrome.

To determine the causes and the most effective approaches to solve podiatric problems, dermatologists of the EMC Children’s Clinic work in close collaboration with other specialists: endocrinologists, gynecologists and orthopedists-traumatologists of the European Clinic of Sports Traumatology and Orthopaedics (ECSTO), apply computed tomography or MRI of feet.
