Delicate Expertise for Artery and Vein Conditions
Vascular Surgery Services
Our expert vascular surgeons develop and refine groundbreaking procedures to treat artery and vein conditions. Your blood vessels are tiny and fragile. The smallest ones are about one-third the width of a single strand of hair. The largest is only about one inch across.
Treating blood vessel conditions requires delicate and safe techniques. In the 1990s, our team led the move to minimally invasive treatments. This lets us deliver care through just one tiny incision. These minimally invasive procedures lower your risk of bleeding, pain, and infection – all while speeding up your recovery time.
Treatments we offer include:
- Advanced technologies to treat peripheral arterial disease
- Balloon angioplasty to widen narrow blood vessels
- Carotid endarterectomy to clean plaque build-up out of your carotid artery, reducing your risk of stroke
- Laser and radiofrequency treatments for varicose veins
- Sclerotherapy to close spider veins using medicines
- Stents to support arteries and keep blood vessels open
- Surgery to restore blood flow (revascularization)
- Thrombolytic therapy to break up blood clots quickly
