Diabetic Shoes

Green Bay, WI

Looking to buy a GOOD pair of Diabetic Shoes . Previously purchased Dr. Comfort and they worked well. But just wondering if anyone had ever purchased a better brand. If so which one and how did they work out.

Your doctor can recommend and/or refer you to a diabetic shoe specialist which may get them covered by your insurance under durable medical equipment. Toledo Ohio area has one called Macino Comfort Shoes and Orthotics. Search online for your area.
