have no idea ...nursey always checks my feet 🙄 good luck x
 
Hi Gail, I had my feet checked last Thursday (by private appointment) and its exactly has Northern explained it. Check pulses and sensations. Doesn't take too long. Amanda x 🙂
 
I would say it depends on what probs you have . I have some numbness and my toes are getting the stringy look at the join onto the foot at the top. She was very nice , talked about shoes, which trainers , and I am going back with the shoes I wear and she'll see if I need an insole or something . I found her FAR more interested in my welfare than my DN but I guess we , and they , are all different!
🙂
