You’re Not Alone, and You Have Options

Even complex trauma wounds can be healed with time and expert care.

Once the emergency department has stabilized a traumatic injury, many patients still face weeks or months of wound care, and not all primary care offices are equipped for complex trauma wounds. Ironworks offers ongoing care for road rash, crush injuries, severe lacerations, degloving injuries, and post-accident wound healing.

For acute, severe, or heavily bleeding injuries, always go to the nearest emergency room first. Once stabilized, we can take over the ongoing wound healing process.

Review of emergency department or prior provider records

Current wound assessment: measurement, depth, drainage, surrounding tissue

Why Choose Ironworks

Custom orthotics made right require a physical exam, gait analysis, and a doctor who understands the underlying biomechanics, not just a casting kit and a form. At Ironworks, every orthotic is prescribed based on a comprehensive evaluation, not a checkbox order.

In-office video and pressure-mat gait analysis before casting

Casting or 3D scanning performed by your doctor, not a technician

Free adjustments during the first 30 days to dial in fit and function

Many insurance plans provide partial or full coverage for medically necessary orthotics

Orthotics matched to your footwear: running shoes, work boots, dress shoes, or sandals

Ongoing assessments to update orthotics as your activity or foot shape changes

Frequently Asked Questions

Go to the ER for heavy bleeding, suspected fractures, loss of function, deep puncture wounds, or any wound you can’t control at home. Come to us for ongoing wound management, wounds that aren’t healing as expected, and follow-up care after initial treatment.

Not usually. Most insurance plans don’t require a referral for wound care follow-up.

Warning signs include increasing redness, warmth, swelling, pus-like drainage, fever, or red streaks moving away from the wound. Any of these warrant a same-day evaluation.

Some scarring is expected with any significant wound, but the quality of wound care has a major impact on the final appearance. Proper moisture balance, protection from re-injury, and, when appropriate, scar management therapies all help produce the best possible cosmetic outcome.

It varies dramatically by wound size, depth, and type. Minor lacerations close in 1–2 weeks.
