For most, a blister or cut on the foot is a small inconvenience that a Band-Aid™ and time will heal—but that’s not the case for the 38.4 million Americans who have diabetes. Complications of diabetes, like neuropathy and peripheral vascular diseases, make feet vulnerable to ulcers that can lead to infection and even amputation.

If you have a diabetes-related wound, the Memorial Medical Center Wound Care Clinic can help! Call 361-552-0324 for more information.

Don’t get surprised by your Medicare coverage. Medicare Advantage can mean pre-approvals, limited doctor networks, and restrictions on where you can get care.

Make the informed choice this year.
