Expanding Physician-Owned Specialists in Wound Care and Podiatry
Atlas Medical Group is a rapidly growing, physician-owned organization with two teams of medical specialists dedicated to Wound Care and Podiatry. Currently, our growing family of 15 providers delivers care at 8 hospitals, 9 office locations, and hundreds of patient homes.Â
Wound Care
 We heal wounds across the entire body. Treatment of non-healing wounds is challenging, requiring coordinated efforts of multiple medical subspecialties. Our experts address barriers to healing, salvaging tissue and limbs, minimizing or eliminating the need for amputation / hospitalization/ complications and enabling our patients to resume normal activity. We leverage multiple subspecialties to overcome the underlying barriers to healing and provide the body with resources encouraging growth of new, healthy tissue. Wound care services are delivered in outpatient clinics, patient homes, and healthcare facilities including long term care and skilled nursing. A partial list of services includes:
Advanced dressing selection
Cleaning and bandaging
Medications
Wound evaluation and monitoring
Moisture treatments and tissue builders
Biological dressing/Skin substitutes
Pressure treatments, including compression wraps and negative-pressure wound therapy
Surgical therapies, if necessary, including removing unhealthy or dead tissue that prohibits the healing of wounds, or wound biopsies to detect abnormal tissues or infection
Coordination of advanced surgical or medical care if indicated
Podiatry
We provide comprehensive medical, surgical and wound care for the foot, ankle and lower leg, striving for superior patient outcomes. With the strength of a large and diverse multispecialty group, we are prepared to manage the most difficult lower extremity cases in an efficient and cost-effective manner. Common conditions treated include:
Arthritis
Fracture or trauma
Bunions
Deformities

Corrective shoes

Immobilization, which uses a splint, brace, cast or walking boot to keep provide greater support during recovery
