Wound Care in North Dallas
Physician-directed wound care in North Dallas.
Chronic wounds aren’t just painful, they also keep us from enjoying the people, places, and activities we love. The Wound Care program at Walnut Place restores quality of life for patients suffering from wounds caused by diabetes, poor circulation, and many other health problems.
Sometimes wounds simply don’t heal as quickly as we hope they will. For seniors, this can be especially troublesome because open wounds increase their risk of infection. Not only that, but chronic wounds can also even lead to re-admittance to the hospital if not properly cared for. At Walnut Place, we offer a personalized, evidence-based approach to treating difficult-to-heal wounds of all types.
