The Live In-Person Desert Foot Multi-Disciplinary Limb Salvage and Wound Care Conference returns to Phoenix, Arizona at the Sheraton Phoenix Downtown, December 10 - 13, 2025. The renowned lecture program will be taught by some of the finest teachers in podiatry and will be focused on evidence-based, best practices to improve limb salvage techniques, advanced wound care skills, and treat surgical and medical disorders of the lower limb. The conference provides a great opportunity for you to learn along with a large part of the federal service wound care and surgical community, as well as hundreds of healthcare professionals in acute care, home care, and the private sector. The conference brings together six major groups involved with limb salvage preservation of the lower extremity, from healthcare clinicians in the private sector, the Veterans Administration, VA Podiatric Residency Directors, the Academy of Physicians in Wound Healing, the Association for the Advancement of Wound Care (AAWC), Arizona Podiatric Medical Association, and the Department of Defense from across the country. The most unique part of the conference is the rotating interactive hands-on workshops, focusing on advanced technologies that provide our attendees with hands-on practical experience and training on surgical procedures, advanced wound care, and new techniques in healing the lower extremity that you will bring back to your offices to begin using on Monday morning. The traditional poster/abstract competition will take place, so begin preparing your contribution for all attendees to see. This important annual conference is approved for 20 CE/CME/CECH for all podiatric surgeons, surgical residents, MDs, DOs, NPs, PAs, and WOCNs, and 2 ABPM MOC Points.

Our unique meeting is led by a group of experienced educators, scientists and clinicians interested in communicating new approaches to the repair of tissues throughout the human body. The program will focus on the science of tissue repair and the implementation of new findings. We share a vision of establishing a welcoming venue to disseminate and exchange the latest advances and thinking in the science of tissue repair and the development of novel, improved strategies to address an important medical need. Participants will gain a broader perspective of the challenges of moving basic science discovery into patient care, from our presentations that extend from molecular biology to clinical development, This one-of-a-kind conference will be a balance between formal presentations, informal discussions, and poster sessions, with the goal of maximizing networking opportunities for all involved.
