Diagnostic
Measuring foot pressure and gait to design the right diabetic footwear, in India.
Diabetic footwear diagnostics in India are the assessments that measure exactly how pressure and movement load your feet, so that footwear and insoles can be designed from real data rather than guesswork to prevent ulcers. At Elegance Diabetic Foot & Ulcer Clinic (EDFC), footwear is prescribed from measurement, guided by Dr. Ashutosh Shah (M.S., M.Ch., 22+ years) in Surat, Gujarat and Vizianagaram, Andhra Pradesh.
Diabetic Footwear Diagnostics in India
Diabetic foot ulcers form where pressure is highest, and nerve damage hides that pressure from you. These diagnostic tests make the invisible visible, turning footwear from a guess into a precise, data-led prescription that offloads your real danger zones.
The Tests We Use to Guide Footwear
- Pedobarogram: a computerised colour map of the pressure under your sole.
- Video gait analysis: slow-motion study of how you walk and where load builds.
- Foot pressure mapping: in-shoe sensors that confirm your footwear is truly relieving pressure.
Why Measure Before Prescribing Footwear
Two feet that look alike can load very differently, and the wrong shoe is one of the most common causes of a diabetic ulcer. Measuring pressure and gait first means your footwear and insoles are built around your own feet, and the result can be checked so the offloading genuinely works.
Who Should Have These Assessments
- Anyone being fitted for diabetic footwear or custom insoles.
- People with recurring calluses or a healed foot ulcer.
- Those with foot deformity or an abnormal walking pattern.
- Anyone whose ulcers keep returning despite footwear changes.

EDFC is India’s first chain of clinics dedicated to diabetic foot care, so footwear here is prescribed from data, not sold off a shelf. These diagnostics feed directly into your footwear assessment and offloading plan.
