Dr. James E. Sharp, DNP-C
Dr. James Sharp brings over 15 years of experience in the medical field and is board certified through the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners. Holding both a Master’s and Doctorate degree as a family nurse practitioner, he has developed extensive expertise in emergency medicine, pediatric care, aesthetic surgical procedures, and wound care.
Beyond his professional achievements, James is a devoted father of four, balancing life with kids ranging from toddlers to teens. When he’s not providing exceptional patient care, he enjoys spending time with his family—whether it’s watching movies, hiking, doing yard work, or coaching his sons’ wrestling teams.

It’s generally best to leave blisters intact to prevent infection. Cover them with a bandage to protect the area. If a blister is large or painful, consult a healthcare professional for proper care.
Over-the-counter antibiotic ointments can help prevent infection in minor cuts and scrapes. However, they should be used as directed, and it’s essential to monitor the wound for any signs of adverse reactions or allergies. For more severe wounds, consult a healthcare provider before applying any ointments.
Several factors may slow healing, including:
– Poor nutrition.
– Chronic medical conditions like diabetes.
– Infections.
– Certain medications.
– Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and following proper wound care practices can promote faster healing.
Various dressings serve different purposes:
1. Gauze: Highly absorbent, suitable for wounds with significant drainage.
2. Films: Transparent and semi-occlusive, allowing oxygen exchange while protecting the wound. Amniotic grafts fall into this category
3. Hydrocolloids: Maintain a moist environment and absorb exudate, ideal for wounds with moderate drainage.
4. Foams: Highly absorbent, used for wounds with heavy exudate.
Our expert staff would be happy to help you determine the most appropriate dressing for your wound.
