Our very own Dr. Cazzell was invited to be part of a panel discussion at the Symposium on Advanced Wound Care (SAWC) where he discussed cellular and tissue products and best practices on how and when to use them most effectively and, more importantly, when not to utilize them so you do not have failures of therapy.
What an honor it was to be part of such an accomplished group of doctors (just read their credentials below and you’ll agree!) who, through their tireless work in the wound arena and clinical research, improve the lives of patients worldwide. We are proud of you, Dr. Cazzell!!! Shawn Cazzell, DPM, Valley Diabetic Foot Center
