What happens after your visit?

How often will I need to come for treatment?

Frequency depends on your wound type and healing progress.


Some patients visit once a week, while others may come two to three times per week early in the healing process.

What if my wound isn’t healing or keeps coming back?

That’s exactly what we specialize in.
Chronic or non-healing wounds often have underlying causes that need medical attention—such as diabetes, vascular issues, or infection.
Our specialists work hard to identify the root cause and create a personalized plan to promote long-term healing.

Do you offer home health coordination?

Yes. We work closely with home health nurses and primary care providers to ensure consistent wound management and seamless communication between visits.

What can I do at home to help my wound heal faster?

Follow all wound care instructions, eat a healthy diet rich in protein, control blood sugar if diabetic, avoid smoking, and attend all scheduled visits.
Healing is a team effort—we’ll guide you every step of the way.
