SmoothToe
Diabetic Socks Acquired by Lifestyle Medical
Group
Saint
Charles, July 8/ - SmoothToe, the only brand
of diabetic socks available anywhere in
the world with a Lifetime Blister Free Guarantee
as well as a Five Year Extended Warranty,
has new owners and is expanding internationally.
Lifestyle
Medical Group LLC ( www.SmoothToe-Socks.com
) is pleased to announce its April 1st 2008
acquisition of the SmoothToe brand of diabetic
socks and their introduction to the UK via
the website: www.SmoothToe.co.uk .
“The
expansion into the UK market with the SmoothToe
brand is a natural extension of our comprehensive
online marketing plan” said Greg
Hoscheit, partner at Lifestyle Medical Group.
Mr.
Hoscheit created the SmoothToe line while
he was director of consumer products at
Osborn Medical Corporation, and formed Lifestyle
Medical Group to purchase the SmoothToe
division from Osborn and develop other medical
products.
“I
was looking for high quality medical products
for my pregnant clients and other clients
with vulnerable feet, when I discovered
SmoothToe Diabetic Socks on a trip to the
United States in January” explained
Dr. Joe Kabukoba, SmoothToe distributor
in the United Kingdom.
Dr.
Kabukoba, a Senior Consultant Gynecologist
in Birmingham, continued
“There’s
nothing on the market that compares to SmoothToe’s
design and construction. Moisture management
is of critical importance for the diabetic
foot and SmoothToe uses 74% CoolMax fabric,
which is the most I’ve seen in any
socks. CoolMax is the acknowledged leader
in moisture wicking fabrics and should replace
cotton for use on the diabetic foot in order
to limit bacterial growth, possible skin
breakdown and infection.
Also,
there are the medical benefits of graduated
compression, which are well documented.
SmoothToe achieves the necessary graduated
compression without any of the discomfort
often associated with medical compression
hosiery. In fact, SmoothToe are more comfortable
than regular socks, and as a result more
patients are likely to enjoy wearing them.”
