Description
The Therapeutic Diabetic Shoe (HCPCS A5500) is an essential part of a comprehensive diabetes management plan. For many diabetics, peripheral neuropathy can cause a loss of sensation in the feet, making it difficult to feel small injuries that can lead to serious infections. These shoes act as a protective barrier, redistributing weight across the entire foot to eliminate “hot spots” and high-pressure zones.
At Alfa Healthcare, we serve the Floral Park, Queens, and Nassau County communities by providing footwear that combines clinical necessity with modern style. We understand that “medical shoes” should look and feel like high-quality sneakers or dress shoes. Our A5500 shoes are designed with a firm heel counter for support and a rocker-bottom sole to assist with a natural gait. Whether you are managing chronic foot pain or looking to prevent long-term complications, our professional fitting team can help you find the perfect pair to keep you moving safely.
