In South Florida's heat and humidity, a diabetic foot ulcer becomes a serious wound fast. We bring offloading, vigilant inspection, and advanced dressings to you — before a small ulcer becomes a hospital admission.
Total-contact casts, felted foam pads, and surgical shoes chosen for your routine — and for Florida weather.
We look for the subtle signs (odor, warmth, drainage character, probe-to-bone) and loop in your PCP or podiatrist before infection gets ahead of us.
Silver antimicrobials, collagens, foams, and enzymatic debriders — selected weekly based on what the wound is actually doing.
Daily foot checks, wrap technique, when to call us after hours. We coach the family, not just the patient.
Call Palm Wound Care when any of these are true. Early visits are faster visits — and usually cheaper for everyone.
For active diabetic ulcers, typically once a week. We escalate to twice-weekly when infection risk is high or the wound is changing quickly, and back off as healing progresses.
Often no. We coordinate mobile imaging, mobile phlebotomy, and — for vascular concerns — arrange rapid referral to vascular specialists who work with us.
You call our on-call line. We triage, adjust the plan, and if it needs an ED visit we'll tell you clearly — and send documentation ahead so you don't repeat your story five times.
