How Diabetic Foot Guide makes money, stated plainly, so you can weigh what you read here.

Affiliate links

Some pages on this site contain affiliate links. If you buy something after following one, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. The price you pay is the same whether you use our link or go direct.

What that does and does not buy

It does not buy a recommendation

No manufacturer or retailer pays to be recommended here, and none has editorial input, review rights or advance sight of a page.

It does not change clinical positions

Where a product category is a poor idea for some readers — compression without a circulation assessment, heated devices on an insensate foot — the page says so, commission or not.

It does fund the site

Commissions pay for hosting, research access and the time to write. Without them this site would not exist.

You can always go direct

Every product we name can be searched for and bought without using our link. Nothing here is gated behind one.

The author’s other interests

Dr. Tom Biernacki owns Balance Foot & Ankle, a podiatry practice in Michigan. Pages on this site link to that practice for readers who want care in Michigan. That is a commercial interest and it is disclosed on every page where it appears.

Advertising and data

We do not sell your personal information. Analytics are used to understand which pages are useful. See the privacy policy for what is collected and how to ask for it to be removed.
