The Southeast Georgia Health System Brunswick and Camden Campus Wound Care Center physicians, clinicians and staff recently gathered to celebrate receiving the Robert A. Warriner III, M.D., Center of Distinction award. This is the sixth consecutive year the Brunswick Campus has been recognized, and the first recognition for the Camden Campus Center since opening its doors in 2020. Both Centers achieved outstanding clinical outcomes for twelve consecutive months, including a patient satisfaction rate higher than 92 percent. The Wound Care Centers were awarded these prestigious honors by Healogics, the nation’s largest provider of advanced wound care services.
“We are proud to have received this award again, as it exemplifies the dedication our specially trained team has in ensuring the best possible outcomes in wound healing for our patients,” says Eric Segerberg, M.D., board-certified general surgeon and medical director of the Brunswick Campus Wound Care Center. “We are committed to providing our patients with leading-edge technology and offering treatments that can help heal and get patients back to their best health.”
Both centers offer highly specialized wound care to patients suffering from pressure ulcers, infections, diabetic ulcers and other chronic wounds. The staff includes physicians with advanced training in lingering wounds caused by a variety of conditions and nurses trained in chronic wound care. Specialized treatments include negative pressure wound therapy, total contact casting, bio-engineered tissues, biosynthetic dressings, growth factor therapies and hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which works by surrounding the patient with 100% oxygen to help progress the healing of the wound.
These advanced therapies are not available in a regular doctor’s office and are rarely found in small, rural hospitals like ours,” explains Edgar Leeon Rhodes II, M.D, board-certified general surgeon and medical director of the Camden Campus Wound Care Center. “Southeast Georgia Health System is future-minded in bringing this kind of critical care to all patients throughout southeast Georgia.”
