Advanced – Diabetic Foot & Wound Care Consultation is a privately-owned Canadian corporation established in Nov., 2019 operating in the city of Thunder Bay, Ontario and extending wound care services across Ontario, Canada. It was founded by Dr. Ide Costa, a Registered Nurse Specialized in Wound, Ostomy and Continence (NSWOC) with both master and doctorate degrees focused in Wound Healing and Self-Management. Dr. Costa started the company because she holds a strong passion for wound healing and is committed to use her expertise to providing client-centred wound care, best-practice and cost-effective care to people living with and managing hard-to-heal wounds. Dr. Costa believes that everyone has the right to be cared for by a specialized wound care team to avoid devastating outcomes such as limb amputation.
Advanced – offers a hybrid approach that includes virtual and in-person care. Our team of wound care nurses and multidisciplinary network of healthcare providers have extensive experience in wound healing. Our wound care team currently consists of registered nurses (RN) who are either specialized in Wound, Ostomy, and Continence (NSWOC), or have taken the International inter-professional Wound Care Course (IIWC), or who have master’s degree in Wound Healing.
