Diabetic Shoes
Newport Family Foot Care is a registered medical equipment distributor. We are trained and licensed to measure, fit and dispense prescripitve shoes made for the Diabetic population. These shoes have proven to reduce the risk of infections of the foot as well as reduce the incidence of hospitalization and amputations from foot infections. Due to these facts, these shoes are often covered by most insurance carriers. Happily, the shoes now come in a wide variety of styles including sneakers, boots and dress shoes and look nothing like the typical, old fashioned and ugly prescription shoes of the past
