Diagnostics
We use cutting-edge noninvasive diagnostic imaging to detect vascular and endovascular conditions, such as aneurysms and narrowed blood vessels, including:
- Angiography
- Computerized tomography (CT) angiography
- Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) angiography
- Doppler ultrasonography
- Transescophageal echocardiography
Our specialists have expertise in diagnosing peripheral artery disease, a condition in which arteries in your arms or legs may be blocked or narrowed. If present, it can increase your risk for heart disease or stroke. We use noninvasive pressure tests to check blood flow and evaluate if blockages or narrowing of arteries are present.
Vascular and Endovascular Treatments
We offer expertise in treating conditions of the vascular system including minimally invasive approaches to treatment, including:
- Aortic aneurysm repair
- Carotid artery repair
- Dialysis access procedures
- Kidney artery repair
- Intestinal artery repair
- Wound care
- Leg ulcer treatments
- Lower extermity arterial repair
- Vein stenting
- Varicose vein procedures

Vascular Lab
Our vascular lab, accredited by the Intersocietal Commission for the Accreditation of Vascular Laboratories, offers non-invasive diagnostics to determine if you have a condition affecting your arteries and veins. The lab performs more than 8,000 procedures every year and is supervised by the vascular surgical service at Englewood Hospital. We typically perform same-day assessments, allowing patients to start treatment sooner.
