HOPE Amputation Prevention Center

Seeing multiple doctors shouldn’t put your leg at risk.

When care isn’t coordinated, patients lose time, clarity, and their best chance for recovery.

Schedule an appointment

Coordinated care. A better chance to save your leg.

A unified medical team working together under one clear plan.

“I trust them to coordinate my care and give me the best chance to save my leg and my life.”

Schedule an appointment

Too many patients lose limbs not because medicine has failed, but because care is fragmented, delayed, and disconnected.

At HOPE, we believe patients deserve more than isolated appointments.
They deserve a coordinated plan, led by experienced physicians, where every specialist works together toward one goal: limb preservation.

Fragmentation puts limbs at risk. Coordination saves them

How we guide your care

HOPE is built around one simple principle: care works better when it works together.
Our coordinated care model brings multiple specialties into one unified plan, so
nothing is missed, no time is lost, and no decision is made in isolation.
One team. One plan. One better outcome.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT):​

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is the administration of 100% oxygen in a safe, pressurized environment.

The therapy works throughout your entire body as increased levels of oxygen enter the bloodstream and tissue to promote the healing of chronic wounds.

This non-invasive procedure boasts a range of benefits, such as:

  • Preserving injured tissue integrity
  • Enhancing oxygen delivery to injured tissue
  • Accelerating wound healing
  • Strengthening control over specific infections
  • Facilitating the growth of new blood vessels

HOPE Alliance

Healing goes beyond the physical.

HOPE Alliance is our support program dedicated to addressing the emotional and
mental challenges patients and families face during limb-threatening conditions.

Through education, support groups, and connection, HOPE Alliance walks alongside
patients, because healing happens best when people feel supported
