Accidents happen—whether it’s a kitchen mishap, a fall, or an injury at work. When you need stitches, you want care that’s fast, safe, and minimizes scarring.
At Wallenpaupack Medical, we provide suturing in a clean, professional setting. Kelly Gorman brings years of emergency and critical care experience to every procedure, ensuring wounds are treated with precision and care.
What Is Suturing?
Suturing involves closing a wound with stitches to promote healing and reduce the risk of infection. It’s often necessary for:
- Deep cuts or lacerations
- Wounds that won’t stop bleeding
- Injuries in areas where scarring is a concern
- Cuts caused by sharp objects
What to Expect During Treatment
After carefully cleaning the wound, Kelly will use sterile techniques to close the area with stitches. A local anesthetic is usually applied to minimize discomfort. You’ll receive instructions for caring for the wound and information on when to return for suture removal if needed.
