The Whitfield Regional Hospital Wound Care Clinic was welcomed to the community by the Demopolis Area Chamber of Commerce during a ribbon cutting ceremony on Oct. 18. The clinic’s first official day was Aug. 28, and since that time 26 patients have received treatment at the clinic. The clinic features advanced technology, resources and medical guidance from Healogics, a provider of advanced wound care services, to heal chronic wounds in patients that require a more specialized approach to healing that many primary care physicians are not able to provide. Appointments can be made via referrals or by calling the clinic at 337-287-2438.
