Footcare & Wound Care Center
The Dowites78 Footcare & Wound Care Centre stands as a beacon of hope for patients suffering from diabetic foot complications, infections, and chronic wounds. Diabetic foot disease is one of the most serious long-term complications of diabetes, often leading to pain, disability, and in many cases, preventable amputations. Established to address this growing public health concern, our Centre combines cutting-edge clinical practice with compassionate care—all provided completely free of cost to those who cannot afford treatment.
