About Podimetrics:
Founded in 2011, Podimetrics set out on a mission to improve patient lives through early detection and prevention of diabetic foot ulcers, the leading cause of lower limb amputations. Podimetrics has since evolved to become a rapidly growing virtual care management company with advanced technology and patient-centered services.
Today, Podimetrics teams with and provides solutions to patients, payers and providers that alleviate the health and financial implications of diabetic foot complications in high-risk populations.

- Courageous Action: We are driven to act and demand mutual accountability. We believe that missteps foster learning and iterative improvement.
- Healthy Debate: We commit to transparent discussion and resulting decisions. The very best decisions come from differing points of view, requiring good intentions, mutual trust and no ego.
- Deep Curiosity: We are always striving to learn more and do better. We question if the best we have ever done couldn’t be improved further.
