Wound Care Clinic
There’s no longer any reason to suffer with chronic wounds.
Specialists working together for you
Each wound is unique and the Wound Care Clinic at Fannin Regional Hospital is equipped and staffed to determine what type of treatment is required for optimal wound healing. Most treatments are covered by Medicare/Medicaid, HMOs and other private insurance plans. We specialize in caring for people whose open sores have resisted traditional treatment. Our clinic is staffed with a unique team of doctors, nurses and physical therapists – all dedicated to healing chronic wounds.
The causes of open sores are complex and our group represents expertise in the major areas necessary to handle the various circumstances and challenges that accompany sores. It could be as simple as changing a medication or it could involve a more complex treatment. Our team will determine what type of treatment is required for optimal wound healing.
