A New Chapter in Healing:
How Renew Wound Care Center Is Transforming Lives Across the Foothills
In the foothills of North Carolina, surrounded by the quiet beauty of Mount Airy, a new kind of healing is taking place—one that goes deeper than bandages and beyond traditional care. At the heart of this transformation is Renew Wound Care Center, a state-of-the-art clinic providing advanced, life-changing treatment for people suffering from chronic wounds.
From diabetic ulcers and pressure injuries to post-surgical complications and vascular wounds, Renew Wound Care Center is restoring more than skin—it is restoring quality of life. Led by board-certified wound care specialists, Renew offers cutting-edge therapies typically found only in major medical centers, now available right here in our own community.
What truly sets Renew apart are two things: their innovative mobile wound care service, which brings this high-level care directly to homes and facilities in surrounding towns like Winston-Salem, King, Rural Hall, and Pilot Mountain, and the fact that they are home to the only board-certified wound care specialists in the area.
Why Wound Care Matters More Than You Think
Chronic wounds affect millions of Americans each year, particularly those with diabetes, poor circulation, limited mobility, or immune disorders. These wounds often do not respond to standard treatment and can linger for months—or even years—causing pain, frustration, and a serious risk of infection or amputation.
“When people think of healthcare, they often overlook wound care,” says Dr. Doug Yarboro, DPT, CWS, ICLM, Board Certified Wound Specialist at Renew Wound Care Center. “But for patients living with a wound that will not heal, every day is a challenge. Our goal is to remove that burden and help them get back to living fully.”
Healing chronic wounds requires far more than a bandage and antibiotic ointment. It demands advanced technology, specialized expertise, and a personalized approach—all of which patients find at Renew.
Advanced Treatments, Real Results
Renew Wound Care Center does not settle for outdated or one-size-fits-all treatments. Instead, they use a range of modern, evidence-based therapies proven to accelerate healing and reduce complications.
Some of their most effective options include:
Ultrasonic Debridement – A gentle but powerful method using sound waves to remove dead tissue without damaging healthy skin. This encourages faster healing while reducing pain and risk of infection.
Pulsatile Lavage – A controlled irrigation technique that cleans deep into wounds, flushing out bacteria and debris with pinpoint precision.
Ultraviolet-C Therapy – A light-based treatment that targets bacteria and supports tissue regeneration, especially effective for infected or slow-healing wounds.
Advanced Wound Dressings – These are not typical bandages. Each is scientifically designed to interact with the wound environment, keeping it in the optimal state for healing. Some even release antimicrobial agents or stimulate tissue repair.
Each treatment plan is personalized, taking into account the wound’s size, depth, and cause, as well as the patient’s overall health. This customized care, combined with advanced medical technology, leads to measurable results—and healthier, happier patients.
Healing on Wheels: Mobile Wound Care That Comes to You
One of the most innovative aspects of Renew Wound Care Center is its Advanced Mobile Wound Service. Recognizing that many patients with chronic wounds are elderly, disabled, or living in rural areas, the Renew team takes its expertise on the road.
This mobile service covers a wide area, including Winston-Salem, King, Rural Hall, Pilot Mountain, and nearby towns. Patients receive the same high-quality care they would in the clinic, all from the comfort and convenience of their home or long-term care facility.
“This service has been a game-changer,” says Andrew Bullins, Nurse Liaison. “Many of our patients were unable to travel, and their wounds were only getting worse. Since working with Renew’s mobile team, we’ve seen incredible improvements.”
Mobile visits are coordinated closely with local physicians, home health agencies, and caregivers to ensure continuity of care and better outcomes for every patient.
More Than Medicine: A Team That Cares
Technology and treatment matter, but so does compassion. At Renew, every provider is board-certified in wound care, bringing not only expertise but also genuine dedication to their patients.
“Our team doesn’t just look at a wound—we look at the person behind it,” says Dr. Leah Yarboro, DPT, CWS, CLT-LANA, Board Certified Wound Specialist at Renew Wound Care Center. “We listen to their concerns, celebrate their progress, and walk with them through the entire process.”
That commitment to care is felt from the first phone call to the final dressing change. Whether you are being treated in the clinic or at home, you are welcomed like family—with dignity, respect, and hope.
Doug and Leah have been serving the Mount Airy community and surrounding areas for more than 20 years, providing expert wound care and community leadership.
Both are members of the Rotary Club of Mount Airy and serve on the boards of The Blue Bear Foundation and The Shepherd’s House, furthering their commitment to helping others both inside and outside the clinic.
Hope, Healing, and a Path Forward
In a time when healthcare can often feel rushed or impersonal, Renew Wound Care Center stands apart as a place of thoughtful, patient-centered healing. They do not just cover wounds—they help heal lives.
