Offering hope for patients suffering from chronic wounds

Over 6.5 million Americans suffer from chronic wounds.  Chronic wounds are often visible and are considered serious if they do not respond to treatment after thirty days of conventional medical care.  With an aging population, diabetes and obesity epidemics, and the increasing incidence of chronic disease, the number of people suffering from hard-to-heal wounds is staggering. 

The incidence of chronic wounds is highest among diabetics, which often results in amputation if not treated with the latest healing techniques. Chronic wounds can also result from prolonged pressure on the skin, venous and arterial disease, and non-healing surgical and radiation damage.

Mercy Wound Care Center and Hyperbaric Medicine is an out-patient, hospital-based program that works along with the patient’s primary care physician. The complexity of chronic wounds requires intervention by multiple health-care disciplines to address the many conditions and positively impact healing.

Mercy Wound Care is open Monday-Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. and operates by appointment.  Many health plans cover Wound Care Center treatments including Medicare, Medicaid and other commercial insurance plans.

Traci Ivey, M.D., serves as the Medical Director of the program.  Dr. Ivey is assisted by a team of experienced wound care physicians, including William Swindell, M.D., Brooke Bisbee, DPM, and Robert Trovillion, DPM.   Each physician coordinates an overall care plan for each patient and works in partnership with the patient’s referring physician. 

Our program is completely devoted to healing chronic wounds, and helping our patients reclaim their quality of life.

For most people, cuts and scratches heal within days or weeks.  But for those whose natural healing process is hampered, a simple sore can become a complex medical problem requiring specialized care.  The professional and caring staff at Mercy Wound Care Center offer hope to patients who have been immobilized by chronic wounds for months, and sometimes years.

Mercy Medical Center partners with Diversified Clinical Services (DCS), the world’s largest wound care management company with over 300 hospital partners to deliver excellent evidence-based care to patients with chronic wounds. DCS has been the leader in wound care for over 20 years, offering the most advanced modalities such as adjunctive hyperbaric oxygen therapy. 

For more information about the wound care program and its treatments, or to obtain a referral to schedule an appointment, please call Mercy Wound Care Center at (479) 878-2550.  You may also fax (479)878-2555, or email Ann.Cantrell@Mercy.net.  We look forward to the opportunity to serve you at Mercy Wound Care Center.
