Episode 2: Understanding Diabetes Distress: Impact on Patient Care and Outcomes
This episode will explore the often-overlooked intersection of mental health and diabetes management, focusing specifically on diabetes distress.
While not classified as a mental health disorder, diabetes distress affects up to two-thirds of people with diabetes and significantly impacts treatment adherence, outcomes, and quality of life.
Join our expert guests—Dr. Denise Levy, Supervising Hyperbaric Physician at Montefiore Medical Center, and Dr. Gary Rothenberg, Medical Director of Podimetrics—as they discuss how all members of the care team have a role in addressing this issue, and how technology solutions like remote monitoring can help reduce patient burden and improve engagement.

Episode 1: The Hidden Cost of Diabetic Foot Complications in the Workplace—And How Prevention Can Change Lives
What happens when a preventable condition sidelines a valued employee for nine months? For more than 37 million Americans living with diabetes, that’s precisely what diabetic foot complications can do—and the impact reaches far beyond the clinic.
In this debut episode of Smart Steps, host Erin Perkins sits down with Dr. Gary Rothenberg, Director of Medical Affairs at Podimetrics, to uncover the hidden cost of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) in the workplace. From long-term disability and extended leave to amputations that can exceed $100,000 per case, these complications are taking a serious toll on employers and employees alike.
Learn how the Podimetrics Solution goes beyond point solutions to address the most vulnerable patients, before complications arise.
