Limb Preservation

In Wyoming, access to specialized wound care can be limited—especially for patients facing complex, chronic, or non-healing wounds. At Wyoming Wound Care, our mission is to change that reality by providing advanced, specialty-level wound care focused on early intervention, limb preservation, and patient advocacy.

Each year in the United States, more than 150,000 lower-limb amputations are performed, most often related to diabetes, vascular disease, trauma, or non-healing wounds. Rural states like Wyoming experience higher amputation rates due to delayed treatment, limited access to specialty care, and higher rates of chronic disease. Research consistently shows that many amputations are preventable when wounds are evaluated and treated early by experienced wound care specialists.

Our clinic exists to ensure patients have access to that level of care—without having to leave their community.

A Commitment to Early Intervention and Second Opinions

At Wyoming Wound Care, we believe that second opinions matter. Too often, patients are told that a wound “won’t heal” or that amputation is inevitable. In many cases, those outcomes can be avoided with the right expertise, advanced therapies, and consistent follow-up.

We routinely care for patients who come to us after weeks—or even months—of stalled healing. By reassessing the wound, underlying circulation, infection risk, and overall health factors, we are often able to redirect the treatment plan and achieve meaningful progress.

Our approach emphasizes:

  • Early evaluation of non-healing wounds

  • Identifying and addressing underlying causes

  • Aggressive but appropriate wound management

  • Clear communication with patients and referring providers

When wounds are treated early and thoroughly, outcomes improve—and lives are changed.

Specialized Wound Care with a Limb Preservation Focus

Wyoming Wound Care provides comprehensive treatment for a wide range of wounds, including:

  • Diabetic foot ulcers

  • Arterial and venous ulcers

  • Traumatic wounds

  • Post-surgical and non-healing incisions

  • Pressure injuries

  • Burns and lacerations

  • Chronic wounds with infection or delayed healing

Our clinic utilizes advanced wound care therapies, including low-frequency, non-contact debridement technologies, to support healing while minimizing trauma to healthy tissue. Every treatment plan is tailored to the individual patient, with a strong emphasis on preserving mobility, independence, and quality of life.

Limb preservation is not just a goal—it is a guiding principle in everything we do.

Continuing a Legacy of Excellence in Wyoming Wound Care

Wyoming Wound Care was founded by Michael Reed, whose dedication to advanced wound treatment and patient-centered care laid the foundation for the clinic’s long-standing reputation in the community. Today, our work continues that tradition.

Under current leadership, our clinic remains deeply committed to maintaining the high standards of care that patients and referring providers have come to expect—while also expanding awareness so more people in Wyoming know that specialized wound care and second opinions are available close to home.

Our goal is simple: help more patients heal, avoid unnecessary amputations, and regain their quality of life.

When to Seek Specialty Wound Care

Patients should consider seeing a wound care specialist if:

  • A wound has not improved within 2–4 weeks

  • There is increasing pain, drainage, odor, or redness

  • A wound is associated with diabetes or vascular disease

  • They have been told amputation may be necessary

  • They want a second opinion before making major treatment decisions

Early action can make a critical difference.

Advocating for Better Outcomes Across Wyoming

At Wyoming Wound Care, we are proud to serve our community and advocate for better access to specialized wound care throughout the state. By combining advanced therapies, clinical expertise, and patient education, we are working to reduce preventable amputations and improve long-term outcomes for patients across Wyoming.

If you or someone you know is struggling with a wound that is not healing, we encourage you to seek care—or seek a second opinion. Healing may be possible.
