High-Quality Care for the Diagnosis, Treatment, and Prevention of Vascular Disease
We understand the pain and worry that come with having vascular disease, abnormal conditions affecting the arteries and veins. That is why at the Heart & Vascular Institute (HVI) we are committed to providing the very best approaches to diagnosing and treating vascular problems such as peripheral artery disease, carotid artery disease, deep vein thrombosis, and varicose veins in an atmosphere of compassionate, person-centered care.
Our fellowship-trained, board-certified vascular surgeons have the highest level of expertise in traditional vascular surgery techniques as well as in the latest innovations in minimally invasive endovascular treatments – treatments that involve small incisions and can usually be performed as same-day procedures.

-
CAROTID ARTERY STENT PLACEMENT (CAS)A minimally invasive procedure in which a stent is inserted into the carotid artery to open up a blockage.
-
CAROTID ENDARTERECTOMYSurgery to remove fatty deposits that are blocking the carotid artery.
-
CATHETER-DIRECTED ANGIOPLASTY AND STENT PLACEMENTMinimally invasive procedures to restore blood flow through blocked arteries.
