Welcome to Delray Beach Podiatry
Diabetic Foot Care

Diabetic Foot Care
Specialized care to prevent complications and promote healing for patients living with diabetes.
Schedule appointmentThe most important inch of diabetic care is the one you cannot see
Diabetes management often focuses on what is happening in the kitchen and on the lab report. The feet are easy to forget — until they are not.
Regular podiatric foot exams catch ulcers before they form, callus pressure points before they break down, circulation changes before they become emergencies. Dr. Goldbaum is a consultant to the United States Federal Medicare Program on diabetic footwear guidelines.
What a diabetic visit includes
- Complete pedal pulse and circulation assessment
- Sensation testing for early neuropathy detection
- Skin and nail evaluation — ulcer prevention
- Pressure mapping with 3-D Gait-Scan when indicated
- Custom diabetic footwear consultation (Medicare-covered where applicable)
Every patient living with diabetes deserves a podiatrist. We are accepting new patients.
