Wound Care

At the Slidell Memorial Hospital | Ochsner Wound Care Clinic, our comprehensive wound care facility has the state-of-the-art equipment and highly trained staff to heal the most stubborn of wounds.  

As a leader in wound care, our care team brings a patient-centered, comprehensive approach to healing. 

Since wounds rarely result from a single cause, we look at your full health history. Chronic wounds can be the result of diabetes, poor circulation or other medical conditions.

To develop the right wound treatment plan for you, our staff of wound care specialists considers physical, psychological and social factors. Then we work closely with your primary care or referring physician to ensure the best possible outcome.
