Clinic Director and Podiatrist Leonie Hegerty O Brien says that people
need to be informed about ill fitting shoes and the effect they can
have in the long term on there feet especially people with Diabetes.
At our clinics throughout Mayo we conduct a scan which will allow us
to assess patient?s feet for the correct size and width for the
Ambulator shoe. This scan takes only a few minutes which allows the
patient to view any normal and abnormal pressure points on the plantar
aspects of the feet. We have a range of Ambulator shoe?s which are
available in various fashionable styles, Colours, Sizes and in three
different widths in both Ladies and Gents and are the only footwear to be approved by the Irish Diabetic federation and Arthritis Ireland.Aetrex / Apex Ambulator shoes are manufactured in the USA and they
