Diabetes Examination – Diabetes Annual Review and Foot Examination – Dr Gill
The diabetic annual review is a core part of GP workload, every year inviting patients with diabetes to come for a focused examination to assess:
– How they are coping with the diabetes
– What is their diabetic control like
– Check the patient’s blood pressure
– Annual Review of diabetic and related medications
– Blood pressure check and foot review
– Dip urine to check for protein
Although not performed at the review, enquiring about diabetic retinal screening, and confirming plans for flu vaccination are also key
