Message from Organizing Committee

Dear Colleagues, Vanakkam! It gives us immense pleasure in welcoming you all to the charming city of Chennai (formerly Madras). This 400-sq-km conglomerate of urban villages and diverse neighbourhoods making up Tamil Nadu's capital will pleasantly surprise you. Its main role is to be the keeper of South Indian artistic, religious and culinary traditions.

One of Chennai�s greatest assets are its people, infectiously enthusiastic about their hometown; they won�t hit you with a lot of hustle and hassle. Recent years have added a new layer of cosmopolitan glamour: luxe hotels, sparkling boutiques, quirky cafes, smart contemporary restaurants and a sprinkling of swanky bars and clubs.

The Organizing Committee for the forthcoming 15th Annual National Diabetic Foot th thCongress "DFSICON 2017" is being hosted by HYCARE for Wounds, from 8 -10 December,

2017. The Scienti�c Committee has planned to invite renowned National & International faculty who are pioneers in the management of various aspects of Diabetic foot & wound management. We promise that DFSICON 2017 will be a great scienti�c treat.

The theme of the conference is " Clarity among Variety." The idea is to bring together all the specialities rendering their valuable support to these patients to prevent & treat the entire spectrum of diabetic foot. We desire to bring the various specialities like Medicine, Diabetology, General Surgery, Vascular Surgery, Plastic Surgery, Orthopedic Surgery, Physiotherapy, & PG students under one roof to present, interact and practice the multidisciplinary approach to manage this growing problem.

Please visit our website "www.dfsicon2017.org" regularly for detailed information & updates.

With Warm Regards,Team DFSICON 2017
