Wound Care

Serving patients seeking weight loss surgery in Dover and the surrounding area

Wound care is an important part of the services offered at Surgical Associates. When a patient is referred to us for peripheral vascular disease, venous stasis disease, and other chronic conditions for surgery, they often have non-healing wounds. Our doctors and nurses have many years of experience dealing with these hard to heal wounds. Wound healing is a complex and dynamic process that is influenced significantly by the changing health status, and lifestyle choices, of the individual who is living with the condition. The process for developing this Wound Care Management Program included a review of wound care literature, engagement of focus groups, internal expert review, physician review and external content and process review by experts.
