What We Do

Commonly Treated

Conditions

  • Arterial Ulcers are usually painful, but not draining. Like most ulcers, they form slowly and many patients are told they have poor circulation which is causing their ulcer. The ulcer may be healable and does not mean amputation is the only answer to healing.

  • Venous Ulcers are typically mildly painful and can drain a lot, often irritating the skin around the ulcer. Accompanying symptoms include discolorization of the leg and swelling/ edema. Drainage is not indicative of an infection and “chronic” swelling does not mean the ulcer will not heal.

  • Diabetic ulcers are wounds that typically develop on the bottom of feet, most often developing from irregular pressure points or an unknown injury due to a loss of sensation sometimes present with longstanding diabetes. Even with diabetes the wound has the potential to heal with proper offloading and care.

  • Swollen, painful legs can be treated with compression garments, which are specialized garments that apply targeted pressure to affected limbs. This promotes proper circulation and facilitates the efficient drainage of excess fluid, reducing swelling and pain.

    Our specialists assess a patient's vascular status when prescribing compression therapy, specifying the type, level, and duration of compression.

    This therapy enhances blood circulation, improves edema, and wound healing outcomes, if a wound is present.

  • These include burns, lacerations or non-healing post-operative incisions and develop from an array of causes and are certainly treatable with conservative wound care.

  • Low-frequency ULTRAMIST System

    ULTRAMIST is a non-contact debridement method that promotes wound healing using low-frequency ultrasound and saline mist. Studies show it can help wounds close 50% faster than traditional methods. It’s ideal for individuals with low pain tolerance and is a great alternative to sharp debridement. It’s effective for diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, venous leg ulcers, deep tissue injuries, and surgical wounds.

If you are experiencing any ulcer or wound that fits one of the descriptions listed, please know that there are answers. A skin graft, letting it “dry out” or even an amputation may not be necessary with proper and consistent, skilled wound care. We love what we do and look forward to helping you in any way possible!
