Wound care

Wound care on Long Island: a wound that has not closed in a month needs a different plan.

Four weeks is the line. If a wound has not clearly improved by then with dressings and ordinary care, something is holding it back: circulation, pressure, infection, or oxygen. We find which, and treat that.

Diabetic foot wounds

The most common wound we see and the most dangerous to leave alone. We work with your podiatrist on offloading, debridement, and oxygen when the wound qualifies.

Surgical wounds that will not close

An incision that has opened, drained, or stalled. We assess for infection and blood supply and build a plan with your surgeon.

Radiation wounds

Tissue that breaks down months or years after radiation. One of the clearest cases for hyperbaric oxygen.

What a first visit looks like

  • We measure and photograph the wound so progress is a number, not a feeling.
  • We check circulation and look for infection or bone involvement.
  • We write a plan: dressings, offloading, referrals if needed, and hyperbaric oxygen if the wound qualifies for it.
  • We send notes to your doctor the same day.
