Pink but Perilous: Why Color Doesn’t Mean Healing
22/1/2026 | 13 min
In this episode, a clinician explains why a pink wound isn’t always healing and why exposed tendon makes a wound high-risk and potentially limb-threatening.

Takeaways: wound size and depth predict outcomes more than color; exposed tendon risks desiccation, infection, and functional loss; chronic wounds need reassessment and a new plan if they don’t improve within weeks.
Stop Leaving the Pinky Toe: Why Incomplete TMA Amputations Fail
20/1/2026 | 24 min
Dr. G explains why leaving the fifth digit after other forefoot amputations creates biomechanical imbalance, increased lateral pressure, and recurrent ulcers. He reviews the muscle and tendon changes that drive varus/supination bias and lateral overload.

The episode covers when a full transmetatarsal amputation (TMA) is preferable, the importance of adjunct procedures like Achilles tendon lengthening, and post-op management including orthotics, AFOs, rocker soles, and rehabilitation to restore balanced gait and prevent reulceration.
Questions That MUST Be Asked Before the Cut: 12 Questions to Ask Before Any Amputation
19/1/2026 | 22 min
This episode explains why limb salvage is a philosophy, not just a procedure, and gives the essential questions patients and clinicians must ask before consenting to a lower-extremity or digital amputation.

Topics include global amputation rates and mortality, distinguishing infection from ischemia, the importance of vascular assessment and revascularization, diagnosing and treating osteomyelitis, proper offloading and advanced wound-care strategies, and assessing metabolic healing capacity.

The host also covers when amputation is lifesaving, alternatives to amputation, informed consent, and practical steps to ensure a thorough, multidisciplinary approach to preserving limbs when possible.
Size Matters- Size Is King: How Accurate Wound Measurement Saves Limbs
18/1/2026 | 28 min
This episode explains why precise wound sizing—length, width, depth, surface area, volume, undermining and tunneling—is the most important metric in wound care. Dr. G covers practical measurement techniques, common mistakes, and devices to improve consistency.

Key takeaways: always document depth, use disposable rulers and sterile probes, measure baseline and weekly (pre/post debridement), and escalate care if size doesn’t reduce sufficiently within weeks. Size changes, not vibes, predict healing and limb risk.
Auto Amputation and Demarcation- When the Body Cuts You Off: Understanding Auto-Amputation
18/1/2026 | 22 min
In this episode Dr. G explains auto-amputation — when severely ischemic tissue becomes irreversibly necrotic, the immune system walls it off (demarcation), and the dead segment desiccates and may spontaneously detach. You’ll learn the step-by-step mechanisms from loss of blood flow and ATP depletion to fibro-inflammatory border formation and bone resorption.

We also cover why demarcation is not healing, how infection can convert dry gangrene to dangerous wet gangrene, and when urgent vascular care is needed to prevent limb loss or life-threatening complications.
