Panel: Multidisciplinary Approach to DFU

This session will explore collaborative strategies used by a multidisciplinary team including a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (DPM), physical therapist, and nurse. Each specialty contributes distinct expertise—from wound care and rehabilitation to patient education and psychosocial support. The lecture will highlight how integrated care models improve healing outcomes, reduce amputation risk, and increase patient engagement through coordinated interventions. Using case studies and practical discussion, attendees will gain insights into implementing multidisciplinary frameworks for managing diabetic foot ulcers.
