Vascular Surgery
Vascular Surgery Services
Whether you’ve been dealing with chronic illness that has caused circulatory problems and reduced blood flow, or have suffered an injury that is causing tingling and pain, there are many innovative vascular procedures, ranging from endovascular therapy to minimally invasive and traditional vascular surgery for complex conditions.
Cardiologists and cardiothoracic surgeons specialize in treating surgical disease of the heart and its vessels, while neurosurgeons manage surgical disease of the vessels in the brain. Vein care physicians help patients suffering from conditions that include varicose veins, spider veins and venous insufficiency.

- Carotid artery disease
- Carpal tunnel syndrome – pain, weakness, or numbness in the hands or wrist
