As we reach a decade of conferences from The Diabetic Foot Journal, it is clear<br />
that the need for integrated diabetes foot care is greater than ever. A foot ulcer<br />
is a serious diabetes complication but is also much more. It is a marker for death,<br />
disability and advanced diabetes complications throughout the whole of the person<br />
with diabetes, and not just in the feet. This year’s conference will help everyone who<br />
treats diabetes patients with foot problems, or manages services, to take a broader,<br />
more holistic view of healing ulceration and improving the lives of our patients.<br />
