Vascular

Most of us don’t think much about our body’s circulatory system – which includes the veins and arteries that transport nutrients to the cells. But disorders of the vascular system can be life-threatening. Many disorders are preventable with screening and diagnosis.

	With this in mind, Valley Hospital and Medical Center has combined a team of experts with advanced equipment to create a vascular program that provides highly successful outcomes. Our team uses current technologies and treatment methods to care for the full range of vascular disorders. And, our team utilizes minimally invasive techniques whenever possible. The vascular program at Valley Hospital joins board-certified and specially trained vascular surgeons, interventional radiologists and cardiologists in a unique program offering medical treatments, catheter-based treatments and surgical treatments for PVD.

Vascular Surgery

	If you're told that you have a blocked blood vessel, your first thought might be that you have just been diagnosed with coronary artery disease. That's not necessarily so. A blockage or narrowing can happen in any of the peripheral blood vessels that carry blood throughout your body. This is called vascular disease, and it can show up in a variety of ways, like artery disease in the neck or an abdominal aortic aneurysm. At Valley Hospital, our physicians are highly trained and have extensive experience in treating all varieties of blood vessel disorders. We offer the latest techniques and innovative approaches such as vascular bypass surgery, thrombectomy, abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery, and carotid endarterectomy. Fortunately, Valley Hospital has the skilled medical professionals and the advanced technology to get your vascular system on track.

Accreditation

	The Ultrasound/Vascular department is an accredited Vascular laboratory with the ICAVL (Intersocietal Commission for the Accreditation of Vascular Laboratories). These expert clinicians apply the latest in technology and minimally invasive approaches to greatly diminish the risks and disability associated with PVD.
