Temple Podiatrist Gabriela M. Yurkanin, has collaborated with Vascular Surgeon, Dr. Eric T. Choi, Director of Limb Salvage at Temple Hospital, Dr. Peter Axelrod, Infectious Disease, Dr. Elias S. Siraj, Endocrinology, and Dr. Roy Steinhouse, Psychiatry. Studies support that a multidisciplinary approach reduces diabetic complications and decreases the incidence of hospital re-admissions. This collaboration will be used to help decrease the morbidity and mortality associated with diabetes, as well as decreasing the incidence of misdiagnoses or delay in diagnosis through physician education.
