Expert burn care without the wait.

The Burn Clinic lets you avoid a wait in the Emergency Department.

When you call our clinic, you will be given an appointment time—usually for the very same day.
Visiting the clinic is a lot like visiting your doctor. You will be seen by a provider who has been certified by the American Burn Association. If needed, you will be scheduled for follow-up visits to assess your wound healing.

Why should I be treated by a burn expert?

There are many misconceptions about how burns should be treated. When a burn is treated incorrectly, it can often lead to infection.

By having your burn treated by a burn expert—right from the start—you help ensure that you will have the best recovery possible.

Call now. Or keep our number on hand.
