In addition, the center received the Robert A. Warriner III, M.D., Clinical Excellence Award, which recognizes wound care centers that rank in the top 10% of eligible Healogics centers nationwide based on comprehensive healing rates weighted by wound mix.

“Find. Treat. Heal. is our mission and daily practice,” said Program Director of Cape Fear Valley Wound Care Center – Dunn Crystalyn Tew, RN, in a press release. “Chronic wounds can significantly impact a patient’s daily life and overall well-being, which is why our team is deeply committed to delivering compassionate, high-quality care.
