Physicians, leaders and clinicians at Memorial Medical Center are very proud to announce that Memorial Wound Care Center has been awarded both the prestigious 2024 Robert A. Warriner III, M.D., Clinical Excellence Award and the esteemed 2024 Center of Distinction award from Healogics, the nation’s largest provider of advanced wound care services.

Memorial’s Wound Care Center scored in the top 10 percent of eligible Healogics Wound Care Centers on the Clinical Excellence measure, which is the Comprehensive Healing Rate weighted by wound mix. This award is named for Dr. Robert A. Warriner III, a pioneer in wound care and the former Chief Medical Officer for Healogics.

To earn Center of Distinction status, the MMC Wound Care Center achieved outstanding clinical outcomes for 12 consecutive months, including a patient satisfaction rate higher than 92 percent. These recognitions are a testament to the exceptional care and dedication demonstrated by the center’s physicians, leaders, and clinicians.

Memorial Wound Care Center is a member of the Healogics network of more than 600 wound care centers and offers highly specialized wound care and limb preservation to patients suffering from diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, infections and other chronic wounds which have not healed in a reasonable amount of time.

The team members at MMC are making a huge difference in the lives of those who have been without hope of healing. They personify Healogics’ mission of healing as many patients as possible, by creating and sharing our wound care expertise everywhere we can, for every patient who would benefit by the best means available.

Advanced wound care modalities provided by Memorial wound care experts include negative-pressure wound therapy, total contact casting, bio-engineered tissues, biosynthetic dressings and growth factor therapies. The center also offers hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which works by surrounding the patient with 100 percent oxygen to help progress the healing of the wound.
