Expert Venous Ulcer Care in Southwest San Antonio
Our SW San Antonio clinic is a state-of-the-art facility for venous ulcer treatment. We address the root cause of venous ulcers—chronic venous insufficiency—using evidence-based protocols. Our approach includes accurate diagnosis with Doppler ultrasound, multi-layer compression therapy, advanced debridement, and biologic skin substitutes. With on-site hyperbaric oxygen therapy chambers, we offer a full spectrum of advanced wound care to accelerate healing and prevent recurrence for patients in the SW San Antonio, Lackland AFB, and Helotes areas.
Treatment Protocol for Venous Leg Ulcers
Our comprehensive treatment plan includes: initial consultation with a board-certified physician; non-invasive Doppler ultrasound to assess venous reflux and rule out arterial disease; fitting and application of multi-layer compression wraps to reduce edema and venous pressure; regular sharp debridement to remove non-viable tissue; application of advanced antimicrobial and moisture-balancing dressings; consideration of biologic skin grafts (amnion/chorion membranes) for non-healing ulcers; and a long-term recurrence prevention plan centered on consistent use of medical-grade compression stockings. We work closely with vascular surgeons in the San Antonio area for patients requiring endovenous ablation or other surgical interventions.
