Why are we so obsessive about safety, policy & procedures?


Because at METRO ID, our mission is to treat each patient the way we would want our loved ones treated. That means safety first in HBO. This article from NFPA, one of the chief regulating agencies with oversight for HBOT in hospital settings, highlights the importance of following the standard of care in Hyperbaric Medicine.


Metro ID offers Comprehensive, Advanced OPWC (OutPatient Wound Care) & HBO (HyperBaric Oxygen Therapy) Evaluation, Management & Treatments.

Dr. Shahe Vartivarian, MD and PA Maria Calzada, PA-C, CHT have a combined 36 years of experience in Wound Care and supervising the administration of thousands of Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatments.

In 2015, PA Calzada also obtained the added designation of National Board of Diving and Hyperbaric Medical Technology Certified Hyperbaric Technologist. Both Dr. Vartivarian and PA Calzada maintain their ACLS Provider Certification and can be found at Memorial Hermann Southwest OPWC & HBO and Kindred Sugarland OPWC & HBO Departments.
