Healing wounds, restoring health

Podiatry wound care service helps people with cuts, sores, or injuries on their feet or ankles that don’t heal quickly. Doctors and nurses who work in wound care know how to:

  • Clean wounds to stop infection
  • Put on special bandages
  • Help wounds heal faster
  • Teach you how to take care of your wound at home
  • Check if the wound is getting better

Podiatry wound care can help you avoid severe complications like infections, visits to the ER, and even loss of limb or life.

Our team of specialists will help with different kinds of wounds, like cuts from surgery, sores from diabetes, or injuries that take a long time to heal. The goal is to help your wound get better and keep you healthy.

Services we provide

Central Health’s podiatry wound care program supports patients living with wounds or skin injuries on their feet or ankles, to promote timely healing.

Our wound care team treats:

  • chronic ulcers
  • post-surgical wounds
  • superficial and partial thickness burns
  • pressure injuries up to stage 3
  • lymphatic wounds
  • traumatic wounds

With our podiatry wound care program, you can get the help you need right here in our clinic. We address the full picture– not limited to your wound. We will bring together a team of experts from different fields to make sure you get the best care possible.

We will also create a wound care plan customized only for you. This plan will deal with things like how well you can move, your cognitive ability, living situation, transportation needs, the foods you eat, and your support system. We will always plan around your goals for your own healthcare.

Our goal is to give you the specialized care you need to heal and feel your best.
