Wound Healing Center

There's no reason you need to live with an open sore. Reid Wound Healing Center, conveniently located on Chester Boulevard south of Reid's main campus, is equipped and staffed to address the unique circumstances associated with each wound. In fact, we've been able to treat many open sores that have resisted traditional treatment with a success rate of 80% healed in 12-16 weeks!

Nearly 2.5 million Americans have non-healing wounds that can be caused by diabetes, circulatory problems, pressure ulcers, bone infections, and vascular wounds. Every wound is unique and the Wound Healing Center at Reid Health is equipped and staffed for your personal wound care needs.
