Genesis Wound and Hyperbaric Medicine Institute
Genesis Medical Center's Wound and Hyperbaric Medicine Institute is dedicated to the management and care of problematic wounds and the ongoing care of ostomy patients. We are staffed by a specially trained team of doctors, nurses and other health care workers dedicated to the multidisciplinary treatment of wound healing problems. Our clinicians can improve the outcome of healing by applying research-based care.
The Institute is a collaboration of Genesis and Wound Management Consultants, led by Brad DeWall, M.D., and Richard Sadler, M.D. The two longtime surgeons and wound care specialists are leading a major service expansion and renovation that has brought hyperbaric oxygen therapy to Genesis.
The exciting expansion will take wound care to a higher level for your patients and respond to a significant community need.
