About Ahmad K El Samad DPM, FACFAS
“My professional mission is to keep Northwest Indiana on its feet. Having come from a family with a long history of diabetes, diabetic limb salvage has become a focus of my practice. In addition, I had the honor of being selected to join the orthopedic team at the US Naval Medical Center in Portsmouth, Virginia. Where I played a part of keeping active duty military personnel on their feet. I also was selected as a Director of diabetic limb salvage by multiple hospitals in the region.”
