Facility foot care works best when it is preventive rather than consultative: the resident with diabetes and reduced sensation needs a look every few weeks, not a referral once a wound has opened. We serve Oakland County skilled nursing from our Bloomfield Township office. Book online for a same-week evaluation, or call (810) 206-1402.
