description Māori with diabetes are at a 65% greater risk of amputation compared to non-Māori with diabetes. Despite evidence to support the role of podiatrists in reducing diabetes-related lower limb amputations; the effectiveness of diabetes podiatry services at the community and secondary level to achieve this for Māori is largely unknown. Diabetes podiatry services need to be reorientated and be culturally applicable to Indigenous communities. Transforming diabetes podiatry services and practice may reduce Indigenous amputation rates and improve quality of life for an unserved community.
