Lakewood, NJ --- Wound healing should occur naturally. But when it doesn’t, serious complications including infection, gangrene and even loss of a limb can occur. That’s why Kimball Medical Center has opened a new Wound
Care Center located at 500 River Avenue in Lakewood.
The new Wound Care Center at the Kimball Institute provides the most comprehensive and compassionate wound care available, and offers advanced clinical approaches to wound management. Whether you are a diabetic, have poor circulation or suffer from a medical condition that affects the natural wound-healing process, the combination of medical expertise and state-of-the-art treatment can get you on the path to better healing.
“Our multi-disciplinary team of wound care specialists is committed to providing the highest quality care and clinical outcomes which consistently prove that with the proper treatment and guidance, most wounds can be healed,” explains Dave Terlizzi, Director of the new Wound Care Center.
The team includes general surgeons, podiatrists, plastic surgeons, infectious disease specialists, vascular surgeons, and highly-skilled, wound-certified registered nurses, occupational and physical therapists.
“All Wound Care Center patients will receive a comprehensive evaluation by our team of wound care specialists. During your initial visit, you will undergo a thorough review of your medical history and a physical examination,” explains Terlizzi. “Based on your evaluation, our team will create an individualized treatment plan which will focus on the underlying conditions which are responsible for they delays in the healing process.”
The growth of healthy tissue depends on numerous factors including personal lifestyle, environment, medical, and nutritional needs. These factors are also evaluated by the Wound Care Center team and will provide each patient with recommendations to help optimize your healing potential.
Whether faced with a highly complex wound that requires multi-disciplinary care or a chronic wound, which requires consistent therapy, the Wound Care Center at Kimball is able to help you with the appropriate assessment and treatment necessary, all in one comfortable and convenient location.
