Zivot Limb Preservation Centre

In honour of #WorldDiabetesDay we’ll hear from Harish, who didn’t realize a small cut would lead to life altering foot and leg amputations, and a doctor whose team offers preventive footcare with encouraging results. Spotify: ow.ly/CrYl50Lo4tr Apple: ow.ly/Q4F950Lo4kO

Question - why does Calgary have a lower rate of lower limb amputations linked to #diabetes than Edmonton? Similar population and health system services. That's the question being asked by researchers at @ZivotLPC @GoAHealth - Could it be linked to something called the "Toe and Flow" model of care? To learn more, listen to this podcast from @CIHI_ICIS with @KarimManji and one of his patients.

Last week, Calgary Health Foundation was pleased to present Dr. Karim Manji, Director of @ZivotLPC, and members of his team with a cheque for $79,100, proceeds of the 2023 Ronmor Charity Golf Tournament! These funds will go towards ensuring the best vascular health for all!

We are thrilled to announce the expansion of our pilot program in collaboration with @siksikahealth, GMAK Consulting, and @ZivotLPC! Together, we are dedicated to improving foot health and preventing diabetic foot ulcers among Siksika Nation members. hubs.ly/Q01SHWBy0
