Podiatry Hotline Foot and Ankle

Foot Ankle Leg Wound Care Orange County provides highly specialized wound care for adults in Mission Viejo, California. As a podiatry physician, dual-board-certified podiatric surgeon, and an expert in caring for non-healing foot, ankle, and leg wounds, Thomas Rambacher, DPM, FACFAS, FAPWCA, and the team focus on their mission: We save legs; its what we do. Diseases like diabetes, peripheral artery disease (clogged leg arteries), and chronic venous insufficiency (damaged veins) frequently cause wounds in patients feet, ankles, and lower legs. Once these wounds (also called ulcers) develop, they wont heal unless theyre treated with the intensive wound care available at Foot Ankle Leg Wound Care Orange County. Without wound care, the ulcers progressively enlarge, causing extensive tissue damage and leading to skin and bone infections, gangrene (tissue death) and ultimately lower limb amputation. Foot and leg wounds account for more than half of all non-traumatic amputations. In severe cases, infections that begin in foot, ankle, and leg wounds can spread into the bloodstream, potentially harming the heart and turning into a life-threatening condition. To promote wound healing and save patients feet and legs, Dr. Rambacher offers comprehensive care, ranging from advanced wound care products to surgical procedures like skin grafting, flap reconstruction, and foot and limb salvage. Everyone should pay attention to cuts, abrasions, and wounds on their feet, lower legs, and around their ankles that dont heal. People with diabetes and vascular disease need immediate podiatric care at the first sign of any foot or lower leg wounds. Dont be tempted to wait and hope an open wound will heal. Protect your health by calling Foot Ankle Leg Wound Care Orange County right away. You can also use online booking to request an appointment for healing wound care.
