The DFA Conference is back! And in 2023, it will be resort style, where you can relax and recharge as you all learn about the latest in global DFD clinical practice and research.
DFA 2023 features a social program delivered in DFA style, an interactive exhibition, leading global DFD experts and most importantly, future-focused content with an emphasis on the practical you use every day. So stay tuned as DFA prepares for the official conference launch in March when registrations will also open.
So get ready to dust off that ‘ol’ resort wear’ and join DFA 2023!

We have an amazing superstar line up of international speakers who are not only presenting in our plenary sessions but also our practical workshops across Monday & Tuesday. This is a rare opportunity to learn the latest in DFD straight from the global experts. With both full conference passes + one day passes available you can book what best suits you!
Introducing our keynote speaker Prof David G Armstrong
Professor David G. Armstrong, the American Limb Preservation Society’s Founding President was honoured with the highly esteemed 2023 Karel Bakker Award for Limb Preservation receiving a standing ovation at the 9th International Symposium on the Diabetic Foot held in May 2023. The Karel Bakker Award is conferred to those who have made extraordinary contributions to DFD and limb preservation globally. Receiving the Karel Bakker Award emphasises Armstrong’s groundbreaking research and commitment to education, which has helped shape the future of DFD and limb preservation, thereby significantly enhancing the lives of countless patients worldwide.
Dr. Armstrong is Professor of Surgery at the University of Southern California, holds a Master of Science in Tissue Repair and Wound Healing and has produced more than 620 peer-reviewed research papers.
