Wound Care

The concept behind the Center for Advanced Wound Care is simple - bring about complete healing. Do it with a blend of technology, expert professional care and a generous portion of the human touch. After all, most of our patients have suffered long enough. They need medical attention, naturally. But they also need encouragement. They need to know that we will work with them to find a plan of treatment and therapy that works. Treatment that gives real hope for the future.

We specialize in the treatment of complicated, chronic wounds that have not healed with standard care. The Center provides a comprehensive multi-disciplinary approach to wound care. The multi-disciplinary approach involves physicians, physical therapists, nutritionists, nurses, and other allied health professionals. The Center provides highly specialized and individualized care plans to meet the needs of each patient's specific wounds, all while working together, hand in hand, with your primary care physician.
