Not sure which treatment?
Book a consultation — our specialists will assess and recommend the right protocol.
It depends on the wound grade. Grade 1–2 ulcers typically close in 4–8 weeks with daily dressing and offloading. Grade 3–4 wounds with vascular compromise may take 12–20 weeks and require surgical input.
Do I need a referral to see a CDFC specialist?
No referral is needed. You can book directly online, by phone, or walk into either of our 2 centres. Bring any existing reports or scans.
Are treatments covered by health insurance?
Most inpatient and day-care procedures are covered by comprehensive health plans. We have cashless agreements with 40+ insurers. Our billing team will verify your coverage before treatment begins.
What is the difference between CDFC and a general hospital?
CDFC treats nothing but diabetes and its complications. Every specialist, every protocol and every piece of equipment is focused on this one condition — which means faster, more accurate care.
Can a diabetic foot ulcer be treated without amputation?
In most cases, yes. Our limb salvage rate is 98%. We use revascularisation, structured wound care and offloading to preserve the limb before considering any amputation.
How do I prepare for my first treatment consultation?
Bring your recent blood reports (HbA1c, kidney function, lipid profile), any previous prescriptions, your footwear, and if you have a wound — a clear photograph taken in the last 48 hours.
