Abstract
To date, there has been little psychological research in the diabetic foot population. In this short article, it is argued that there is a strong and urgent need for increased psychological focus. Insights from a psychology pilot study are drawn upon, which tested an intervention aimed at increasing patient involvement in foot treatment decisions and facilitating shared decision making (McBride et al, 2016). The psychological complexities of patients who present to the diabetic foot clinic are discussed, along with pragmatic suggestions for future research into the behavioural elements of diabetic foot care.
