At Randell’s Footcare, we believe in providing thorough, high-quality care at every stage of your treatment journey. That’s why we start every routine podiatry appointment with a Doppler foot assessment. A quick, non-invasive check that gives us vital insight into your foot health.
What Is a Doppler Assessment?
A Doppler assessment uses a small ultrasound device to listen to the blood flow in the arteries of your feet and ankles. It’s completely painless and takes just a few minutes, but the information it provides is incredibly valuable.
We’re not just looking at your skin and nails, we’re looking deeper. Good circulation is essential for healthy feet, especially if you have diabetes, vascular conditions, or are at risk of poor healing.
Why It Matters
Healthy blood flow means your feet are getting the oxygen and nutrients they need to stay strong and recover from any injuries. Poor circulation, on the other hand, can lead to slower healing, increased risk of infection, and unnoticed problems that can worsen over time.
By performing a Doppler assessment, we can detect early signs of circulation issues, often before symptoms even appear, and ensure you get the right treatment or referral quickly.
Who Benefits from This?
Everyone! While Doppler assessments are particularly important for patients with diabetes, reduced mobility, or heart conditions, we believe all patients should receive the same standard of care. That’s why we include this check as part of our routine appointments for every single patient.
A Small Step for Peace of Mind
It’s a small part of your appointment, but it can make a big difference. Our podiatrists are trained to spot the signs of poor circulation early, helping you take the right steps towards better foot health.
Your Feet Deserve the Best Care
Whether you’re booking in for general footcare, diabetic assessments, or specialist treatments, you can rest assured that we’ll be thorough, professional, and proactive from the very first step.
