MedCentris Wound Healing Institute Opens in Natchez
Natchez, Ms. – MedCentris, a leader in advanced Wound Medicine, is proud to announce the opening of our Wound Healing Institute of Natchez located on 54 Sgt. Prentiss Dr., Natchez, Mississippi. It is currently open Monday through Friday from 8am – 5pm. As a private facility, it generally offers a lower co-pay than a hospital. The MedCentris Advanced Wound Healing Program provides specialized care to complex wound patients who have had difficulty healing. Typical patients undergo an advanced wound healing program designed to treat the underlying causes of their wounds, such as infection, malnutrition, and Peripheral Vascular Disease. Surgical procedures are performed at bedside, with an emphasis on minimizing pain and discomfort.
Benjamin Yarbrough, MD, is the Medical Director of the Wound Healing Institute of Natchez. Dr. Yarbrough received his medical degree from the University of Mississippi School of Medicine and completed his residency at University of Mississippi Medical Center. He worked in Family Medicine for 25 years and is currently on the Emergency staff with Merit Health Natchez.
“We are incredibly thankful to be able to bring Wound Medicine to the Natchez area for patients and providers who have had trouble with complex, non-healing wounds,” said Dr. Shaun Carpenter, CEO of MedCentris.
