Wound Healing and Hyperbaric Center

A specially trained team of doctors, nurses and other medical professionals use advanced treatments to help wounds heal so you can feel better and get back to enjoying life.

Wound Center Clinic Treatment StaffBeing healthy and active are two of life's great pleasures. For people who have wounds that won't heal, life sometimes loses its enjoyment because of pain, fear and the inability to get around. Effective treatment can help heal wounds, and that's what the Wound Healing and Hyperbaric Center is all about. We combine inpatient, outpatient and home health care to insure you receive the most advanced wound care treatment available. Two of our team members are certified in wound management by the American Board of Wound Management.

Wound care and hyperbaric medicine specialists at the Wound Healing and Hyperbaric Center work with your physician to develop an individualized treatment plan. An advanced treatment option available at the Center may include hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Hyperbaric therapy delivers pressurized oxygen to help repair damaged tissue. If you require hyperbaric therapy, you can relax in quiet comfort and watch TV while receiving treatment.
