Sharon Hospital: "After hearing 3 different doctors tell my father that he would need his big toe amputated due to a diabetic foot ulcer it was a relief to find Sharon Hospital Wound Center. The first day we arrived at the wound center they said "you may lose a tendent in the toe but not the toe." Sure enough after 50 times in the hyperbaric oxygen chamber my dad is wound free and still has his toe. Our sincere thanks to the staff of the Sharon Hospital Wound Center for all the care they gave to my dad." - roseann
