Wound Care University presented “Elevate Your Expectations” an educational summit in Corpus Christi at the Emerald Bay Hotel on February 22.
Responding to the converging challenges of critical limb ischemia, chronic wounds, peripheral vascular disease (PVD), diabetes, malnutrition and scarcity of care resources that have exacerbated the longstanding amputation crisis in South Texas, the Summit presented successful approaches to these challenges, from thought leaders in the field.
Wound Care University has trained physicians, Advanced Practice Nurses, and other healthcare professionals on 6 continents over the past 10 years, with a mission to increase educational opportunities and awareness of the amputation crisis and enable clinicians to make meaningful impacts in their communities, wherever they practice.
The 2025 Summit featured seven physician leaders, lecturing on topics relevant to amputation prevention, and best practices in wound care and vascular medicine. Seven (7) hours of continuing education credits were available for clinicians who attended the event, which was presented live and as a simulcast event online.
Marcus Gitterle, MD, lead faculty member of Wound Care University, commented, “we were very pleased with the response to our first-annual Summit event. The levels of engagement and participation were excellent, and moreover, I felt privileged to share the stage with such esteemed leaders in the field.”
For those who could not attend the live event, the lectures will be available for CME/CE credit at WoundCareUniversity.com.
