Anacortes, WA -– Island Health is pleased to announce Island Wound Care & Hyperbaric Medicine Center is a recipient of RestorixHealth’s Patient Satisfaction Award. Recipients of this award meet or exceed national patient satisfaction benchmarks over a set period of time.

“This achievement reaffirms our commitment to the patient experience,” said Chief Medical Officer Jason Hogge, MD. “We are proud to be recognized for the quality of care the Island Wound Care & Hyperbaric Medicine Center provides its patients each day.”

RestorixHealth launched its Patient Satisfaction recognition award program to recognize those centers that have met or achieved a patient satisfaction score of 96% or higher.

The Island Wound Care & Hyperbaric Medicine Center is dedicated to optimizing outcomes and preventing lower limb loss in those patients with non-healing wounds. The approach to wound care is aggressive and comprehensive, coordinating traditional and advanced therapies and techniques that are proven to reduce healing time and improve healing rates.

The center is staffed with clinicians with advanced training in wound care and hyperbaric medicine. Integrating a team of wound care professionals optimizes patient care, while offering the most advanced healing options.

 The Island Wound Care & Hyperbaric Medicine Center is a collaborative operation with RestorixHealth. The center focuses on wound treatment that is purely evidence based. Non-healing wounds can occur from diabetes, poor circulation, traumatic injury, radiation therapy and other causes. If you are suffering from a wound that won’t heal, we can start by checking blood flow, determining the underlying problem, and creating an effective treatment plan. Our goal is to help you stay mobile, stop the wound from getting worse or infected, and prevent old wounds from coming back.

Island Wound Care & Hyperbaric Medicine Center is located at 1015 25th Street in Anacortes, and is open Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m.to 4 p.m. For more information, please call 360.899.4600 or visit our website at www.islandhealth.org/wound.
