Specialist wound care delivered to your home or senior community in Creve Coeur — in the same corridor as Mercy Hospital St. Louis. No clinic trips, no waiting rooms.
Creve Coeur is one of St. Louis County's most medically active corridors. Mercy Hospital St. Louis — one of the region's largest healthcare systems — sits at 615 S. New Ballas Rd., and the surrounding area hosts a dense concentration of senior living communities, physician offices, and post-acute care facilities along Olive Boulevard, New Ballas Road, and Lindbergh Boulevard.
For patients discharged from Mercy or another hospital and returning to a home or senior facility in Creve Coeur, the gap between hospital-level care and outpatient wound management can be dangerous — especially for chronic wounds that require frequent monitoring. Gateway Wound Care closes that gap by sending nurse practitioners directly to your door in zip codes 63141 and 63146, typically within 24 to 48 hours of a referral.
We work closely with discharge planners, case managers, and attending physicians at Mercy to ensure seamless care transitions. Whether a patient is going home to a neighborhood near Creve Coeur Lake, or returning to a senior community on Country Manor Lane, our NPs arrive prepared with the patient's history and ready to initiate treatment at the first visit.
Whether you're in a private home near Creve Coeur Lake, an apartment on Olive Boulevard, or a senior community in 63141, our NPs come to you. No transportation, no waiting, no exposure to clinic environments.
Our nurse practitioners specialize exclusively in wound care. That focused expertise means better assessment, more targeted treatment, and faster healing — especially for complex wounds related to diabetes, vascular disease, or prolonged immobility.
We verify benefits before your first visit and accept Medicare, Medicaid, and most major commercial plans. Our billing team handles the paperwork so you can focus on healing.
Infected or rapidly deteriorating wounds don't wait for a clinic appointment to open up. We prioritize urgent cases and typically schedule visits within 24 to 48 hours throughout the Creve Coeur area.
