A newly published JAMA study — co‑authored by podiatric surgeon Dr. Aksone Nouvong — highlights the powerful impact podiatrists have on preventing lower‑extremity amputations.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲:
➡️ In low‑supply markets, every additional DPM per 10,000 Medicare beneficiaries is linked to a 19.1% reduction in amputation odds.

At Corrective Step, this is the heart of our mission.

As a board‑certified DPM in wound care, I see firsthand how early detection, proper wound management, vascular collaboration, and preventive foot care change outcomes — and save limbs.

With projected workforce shortages in podiatry, this study reinforces the importance of expanding access to specialized foot and ankle care. Our community deserves it.
