A Different Model of Care
Most patients are used to a fragmented experience: one specialist for the wound, another for circulation, a separate referral for hyperbaric therapy — each on a different schedule, in a different office. A coordinated limb preservation clinic like HOPE Amputation Prevention Center works differently, and it’s worth understanding what that actually looks like in practice.
Step 1: Your First Visit
Whether you’re referred by another physician or reaching out directly, your first visit typically includes a full evaluation of the wound or condition, along with a vascular assessment to check circulation — often in the same visit, rather than as a separate future appointment.
Step 2: One Coordinated Plan, Not Separate Opinions
Instead of receiving separate, sometimes conflicting recommendations from different specialists, our vascular, podiatric, and wound care team builds a single treatment plan together — so every recommendation you receive already accounts for the full picture.
Step 3: Treatment, Including Hyperbaric Support When Needed
Depending on your case, treatment may include wound debridement, vascular intervention to restore blood flow, offloading devices, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy — all coordinated by the same team, without you having to manage referrals between offices.
Step 4: Ongoing Support Through HOPE Alliance
Recovery from a limb-threatening condition isn’t just physical. Through HOPE Alliance, our support program, patients and families have access to education and connection throughout the process — not just clinical treatment.
Step 5: Returning You to Your Regular Care
Once your wound has healed and your condition is stable, we coordinate with your referring physician or podiatrist to return you to their ongoing care, with clear documentation of everything that was done.
