The Advanced Wound Healing Institute is dedicated to helping each patient heal their wounds.
We make sure our patients have the special care they need, and even those with wounds that are slow to heal or are resistant to conventional treatments.
Diabetes remains the leading cause of non-traumatic amputation in the U.S. Prevention is the key to success, but when a wound does happen, quick advanced care will yield the best chance of limb salvage.
(DFUs) continue to be a major problem globally. Through the years, these continue to be among the most challenging chronic wound types. There is also a high chance of recurrence among DFUs.
Patients with diabetes are at increased risk for limb loss and associated mortality. Because of diabetic neuropathy, a type of nerve damage in the legs and feet, patients don’t feel what’s going on in the bottom of the foot.
Diabetic neuropathy is a type of nerve damage that can occur if you have diabetes. High blood sugar (glucose) can injure nerves throughout your body. Diabetic neuropathy most often damages nerves in your legs and feet.
Advanced wound care is a patient-centered and a multidisciplinary approach between podiatrist, vascular surgeon, and primary care doctor. At FFLC, we specialize in the treatment of wounds that are difficult to heal. We offer the most current and advanced treatments in wound care.
