Wound care

It can be extremely difficult – and sometimes impossible – to effectively treat chronic wounds either at home or in your primary care physician's office. We offer specialized locations that are home to state-of-the-art technology and multidisciplinary teams that use the latest techniques to successfully treat wounds that won't heal.

Find relief at Advocate Health Care's wound care locations:

• Extensive experience: Your wound care team will be made up of experts who've been specially trained on nonhealing wounds. It may include a diabetic educator, interventional radiologist, psychologist, physical therapist, occupational therapist, dietitian, nurse or many others.
• Advanced assessment and treatment: Our wound care experts will evaluate your overall health to determine what caused your wound and what's keeping it from healing before using the latest technology and techniques to treat it. Learn more about our wound assessment and treatment.
• Convenient locations: We offer wound care at easy-to-access locations in Chicago and the suburbs.
