Our process is simple yet complete. You come in for an initial SLAP assessment. We perform a history and examination to determine your risk for developing an ulcer — an open sore that can lead to amputation. We educate you based on your current SLAP risk and create a treatment/prevention program for you to follow. Some people only need to be seen once a year, whereas others might need to come every few months and some, unfortunately, more often than that if problems arise.
