Advanced Wound Care

Weil Foot & Ankle Institute specializes in providing wound care. Open wounds provide heightened risk of developing infections and it is important to assess and treat non-healing wounds to avoid complications.

Diabetic patients with wounds are at particular risk for complications. Poor circulation and lack of sensation (neuropathy) are symptoms commonly experienced by diabetic patients. Often diabetics experience injuries on their feet which develop sores which become wounds. Non-healing wounds put diabetics at risk for amputation if infections and poor circulation is not improved. Regular assessment and evaluation of your foot and ankle vascular health can help avoid future wound healing problems.
