Wound Care

Are you one of the 6.5 million Americans who suffer from a wound that won’t heal? Chronic wounds are often caused by diabetes, poor circulation, or immobility. A non-healing wound can range from an uncomfortable nuisance to serious infection risk. The Wound Healing Center at North Shore specializes in treating arterial ulcers, venous stasis ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, ischemic ulcers, and pressure ulcers. The Center’s specialists will coordinate care with your primary care physician and may suggest treatment approaches including home health care, physical therapy, dressing changes, and diabetes education.
