vascular surgeon

A vascular surgeon is a medical doctor specialized in diagnosing and treating diseases of the blood vessels outside the heart and brain. This includes arteries and veins that supply blood throughout the body. They perform surgeries and procedures to address conditions such as aneurysms, blockages, varicose veins, and blood clots, aiming to improve blood flow and prevent serious complications. Vascular surgeons use both surgical and minimally invasive techniques, working to restore vessel function and promote patient health. Their expertise is vital in managing complex vascular conditions that can affect quality of life and overall health.
