Vascular Services:

• Carotid Artery Disease & Stroke Prevention – The most common cause of stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) is from a blockage caused by plaque in the internal carotid artery on each side of your neck. When blood flow to the brain is decreased by plaque buildup in these two main arteries, you can experience a sudden loss of nourishment to brain tissue, which is a stroke. Read more.
• Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) – When an artery weakens, it can sometimes bulge out and expand in any area of the body as an aneurysm. The most common site is in the abdominal aorta, the large artery that carries blood from the heart through the abdomen to the legs. This is commonly called AAA or Triple A. Read more.
• Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) – As you age, one or more of your artery linings may become irregular or plaque can build up. Both circumstances can block an artery. When this occurs in the arteries outside the heart or brain, especially the legs and arms, it’s referred to it as PAD. Read more.
• Fistula Dialysis – The failure of any organ can require dialysis. This is especially true of your kidneys which cleanse your body of waste products and regulate the amount of water and certain chemicals in your blood. Fistula dialysis is using an artery and a vein sewn together, which makes it ideal for hemodialysis access. Read more.
