If you have persistent, non-healing wounds as a result of diabetes, poor circulation, burns, surgery or trauma, our Wound Treatment Center is here for you. Our interdisciplinary approach provides patients with a comprehensive evaluation and treatment plan using some of the latest available techniques for wound healing. Physician specialists and experienced nurses provide a personalized plan of care, complete with lifestyle counseling and prevention education.

Types of Treatment
