Advanced Wound Care
Many kinds of health problems can result in slow- or nonhealing wounds, like diabetes and conditions that cause poor circulation. Often, people with wounds like these need specialized care.
Fortunately, most of these wounds respond well to comprehensive wound management. When more complex treatment is needed to heal your wound and prevent serious complications, we are here for you.
They’re highly skilled surgeons and use state-of-the-art materials and techniques to help you heal, along with the personal care Central Surgical Associates is known for.

Central Surgical Associates: an important part of your wound-care team.
Our doctors work with the state’s largest, premier wound-care program: Central Mississippi Medical Center’s Wound Management Center. The center is a comprehensive, state-of-the-art facility that offers all the latest treatments and the complete professional care you’ll need to heal.
If you’re dealing with a serious situation that could result in the loss of a limb, you’ll be glad to know that the center’s amputation rates are an impressive 30% lower than the national average.
The physicians at Central Surgical Associates provide much of the care that results in these kinds of statistics, working in partnership with the rest of the excellent team at the center, which includes other doctors and nurses with specialized training in wound care.
The advanced care you can count on.
Drs. Rooks and Cummins perform many of the services you’ll find at the Wound Management Center, including:
- Surgical debridement, to remove unhealthy tissue from around a wound to encourage healing
- Growth factor therapy, created with substances from your own blood that are highly concentrated and applied to the wound to speed healing
- Skin grafts and flaps, to place healthy tissue around the wound, often using microsurgery
- Revascularization, to help blood flow properly to the wound and surrounding area
- Limb-salvage surgery, to avoid major amputation for people with severe diabetic foot ulcers, infections and other serious complications
