For patients with severe hidradenitis suppurativa, our surgeons offer expert excision procedures. We carefully remove affected tissue and reconstruct the area to promote healing. Our goal is to reduce recurrence, minimize scarring, and improve patients' quality of life by alleviating chronic inflammation and discomfort.
Pilonidal Cysts
A pilonidal is a cyst or abscess near or on the natal cleft of the buttocks that can become infected, causing pain and discomfort. Our surgeons perform a unique procedure that combines cyst excision and flap closure with laser hair removal, both treating the cyst and preventing its recurrence — improving quality of life for our patients.
Post-Surgical Wounds
Managing post-surgical wounds is crucial for optimal healing. Our wound care specialists offer advanced treatments, from specialized dressings to negative pressure therapy. We focus on promoting rapid healing, preventing infections, and minimizing scarring to ensure the best possible surgical outcomes.
Pressure Ulcers
Pressure ulcers require expert care to promote healing and prevent complications. Our wound specialists offer comprehensive management, from advanced dressings to surgical interventions. We focus on relieving pressure, optimizing nutrition, and addressing underlying factors to promote healing and improve patient comfort.
Skin Graft Surgery
Our plastic surgeons perform advanced skin graft procedures to treat various conditions, from burns to complex wounds. Using carefully harvested healthy skin, we cover damaged areas to promote healing and restore function. Our goal is to achieve optimal graft survival and aesthetically pleasing results.
Wound Debridement
When patients develop wounds that won’t heal, they are at risk for infection or more serious consequences such as amputation. We help patients manage and heal their open wounds. For severe wounds, we offer reconstructive procedures such as skin grafts or skin flap surgery to provide a covering for open wounds.
Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy occurs when the peripheral nervous system is damaged due to cancer treatment drugs. When these nerves get damaged, sensations in your skin, muscles, and joints can change, causing pain and difficulty with fine motor skills that can interfere with everyday life. The condition can involve a single affected nerve or many nerves symmetrically on both sides of the body.

Decompression Surgery
Our expert surgeons perform various decompression procedures to relieve pressure on nerves throughout the body. From carpal tunnel release to spinal decompressions, we use advanced techniques to alleviate symptoms. Our goal is to improve nerve function, reduce pain, and enhance overall quality of life.
Diaphragm Paralysis
Your phrenic nerve communicates with your diaphragm, which controls your ability to breathe. Damage to the phrenic nerve can lead to diaphragm paralysis. Our surgeons pioneered world-class treatment for phrenic nerve injury in order to reverse diaphragm paralysis. We are the only known center in the world to offer innovative surgical treatment for phrenic nerve damage.
