SAVE THE TOES CAMPAIGN

A Year‑Round Commitment to Protecting Our African American Diabetic Patients

Atlanta Foot Care Center is proud to announce that our Save the Toes Campaign is not a seasonal project — it is a year‑round mission to protect the foot health of our African American diabetic community.

African Americans with diabetes face a three‑times higher risk of toe, foot, and leg amputations. Most of these amputations begin with small, preventable problems. That’s why we are dedicating ourselves to ongoing education, early detection, and proactive care every month of the year.

⭐ What This Year‑Round Campaign Includes

• ⭐ Circulation Checks of the Toes We monitor blood flow to each toe to catch early signs of poor circulation.
• ⭐ X‑rays of the Toes and Feet These help us detect hidden infections, bone changes, and early damage before symptoms appear.
• ⭐ A Full Podiatry Exam at Every Visit Your podiatrist will check:
  • ⭐ Joints
  • ⭐ Skin
  • ⭐ Nerve sensations
  • ⭐ Areas of pressure or irritation
• ⭐ Education and Prevention Tools We teach simple daily habits that protect your feet and prevent ulcers.
• ⭐ Faster Follow‑Ups for Any Concerns If something looks wrong, we act quickly — because early care saves toes.

⭐ Why We Do This

This campaign is about saving toes, saving steps, and saving lives. It’s about making sure our African American diabetic patients get the attention, respect, and early care they deserve — not just once a year, but every single day.

⭐ We’re Here for You — All Year Long

Your feet matter. Your health matters. You matter.
