Healing Wounds, Lifting Spirits
Most people experience minor cuts, scrapes and wounds from time to time. But, occasionally, some wounds just won’t heal properly. When you need a helping hand to recover from an injury or surgery, specialized care for a burn or wounds from a chronic condition, our local wound care center (located in Zephyrhills) is ready to help.
Here, you can take advantage of the latest techniques and technology, including hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to diagnose and care for a non-healing wound. Most importantly, we do more than treat your body; we’ll help ease your mind and lift your spirit every step of the way.
We’re here to help you find the right physician or a location that’s convenient for you.

Your skin is your body’s biggest organ — and it has a big job to do. Every day, it protects you from germs, bacteria and the elements. It’s also responsible for keeping your body at just the right temperature: cool in the summer and warm in the winter. So, when you have a wound, burn or injury, it’s important to treat it so your skin can get back to keeping you well.
Our wound care team offers comprehensive care for many types of non-healing wounds, including:
- Arterial/ischemic wounds
- Diabetic/neuropathic ulcers
- Minor burns
- Radiation injuries
- Surgical wounds
- Traumatic injuries
- Venous insufficiency ulcers
Together, we’ll work to understand your injury and develop a treatment plan that’s right for you. We’ll collaborate closely with you, your specialists and your primary care provider.

- Heal Faster With Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
-
A painless procedure, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can have dramatic benefits, like increasing blood vessel growth and oxygen levels to start the healing process.
During HBOT treatments, you breathe in pure oxygen under increased atmospheric pressure (computers monitor pressure), which can quicken your healing process by regenerating healthy tissue and reducing infections.
Many open wounds can be treated with HBOT, including:
- Acute traumatic injury
- Chronic osteomyelitis
- Diabetic wounds of the lower extremity
- Necrotizing soft tissue infections
- Radiation tissue damage
- Skin grafts and flaps
