MILES Clinic
Michigan Lower Extremity Services (MiLES) Multidisciplinary Foot Clinic
The Michigan Lower Extremity Services (MiLES) Clinic provides coordinated care for patients with complex or limb-threatening conditions, including diabetic foot ulcers, infections, peripheral artery disease, Charcot arthropathy and nonhealing wounds.
During one visit, patients may have access to podiatry, vascular surgery, infectious diseases, and on-site vascular testing. This multidisciplinary approach allows specialists to evaluate patients together and develop timely, individualized treatment plans. Once acute or complex concerns are addressed, MiLES works closely with the patient’s regular providers to support ongoing care. Our goal is to promote healing, prevent amputations, and help patients maintain mobility, independence and quality of life.
