Our vascular surgeons are specially trained to perform a full range of minimally invasive procedures for the diagnosis and treatment of a variety of vascular diseases.

Our surgeons regularly perform diagnostic angiography to aid in the development of treatment plans and strategies.  When indicated, angioplasty and stenting are used as an alternative to traditional open bypass procedures. Carotid artery stenosis can be treated minimally invasively in patients for whom traditional open repair is too high-risk (carotid artery stent placement). Our fully trained surgeons have access a variety of FDA approved devices available for abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, allowing optimal treatment selection in each patient. The minimally invasive procedures are performed in a specialized endovascular suite with state-of-the-art imaging equipment. Minimally invasive techniques allow our surgeons to perform complex vascular repairs through small incisions.  These advanced technologies result in quicker patient recovery and discharge from the hospital one to two days after repair.  Alternate minimally invasive procedures including computer-assisted and hand-assisted approaches are also in use, in select patients.

In addition to FDA approved devices, our surgeons also participate in several clinical trials utilizing devices that are state-of-the-art and available selected clinical trial institutions and investigators.
