Foot & Ankle Wound Care

Comprehensive Wound Healing for Feet & Ankles

Personalized Care for Faster Recovery

At Lake Ridge & Stafford Foot & Ankle Specialists, we understand that lower extremity wounds can be complex and difficult to heal. Our team works as part of a multidisciplinary care approach, providing advanced treatments to help patients recover safely and effectively.


Successful wound care begins with a full understanding of each patient. We take the time to listen to your concerns, review your health history, and perform a detailed exam. This allows us to identify the underlying cause of your wound, address risk factors that may slow healing, and develop a personalized treatment plan designed to restore your health.
