Burn Care | Joseph M Still Burn Centers

The premise and promise of the burn center has been to treat all comers and we never turn away a patient in need of specialized burn care. The Joseph M. Still Burn Center is unique in many ways, one of which is that we treat the burn patient through the entire continuum of care from initial injury through reconstruction. The acute care is often followed by reconstruction as burn scars can be restricting and interfere with a patient’s lifestyle. This is often a long process requiring years of reconstructive procedures. Therefore we have a great opportunity to know our patients and connect with them on a level unlike many other specialties.

Many burn centers focus on the acute injury and once the patient is healed refer them to other surgeons to perform their reconstruction. It has been our experience that having the intimate knowledge of what the patient went through in the initial stages helps us to optimize their reconstructive efforts. Though not every scar can be removed it is our goal to give our patients back their lives.
