Protecting Limbs—Preserving Lives
The Vascular Limb Preservation Clinic (VLPC) at St-Boniface Hospital is a specialized outpatient service dedicated to preventing limb loss in patients with wounds, poor circulation, and diabetes-related foot complications.
Peripheral Artery Disease
- Reduced blood flow to the legs causing pain, wounds, or tissue damage.
Non-Healing Wounds
- Foot and leg wounds that haven’t healed with standard care, including diabetic foot ulcers.
Gangrene & Tissue Loss
- Early dry gangrene and necrosis managed to prevent further progression and amputation.
Charcot Foot
- Nerve-related bone and joint changes in the foot, with or without open wounds.
You don’t need to figure it out alone! If you have a wound that isn’t healing, leg pain at rest, or have been told you have poor circulation — talk to your Provider and ask whether a referral to the VLPC is right for you.
