Vascular Surgery
More than eight million Americans suffer from peripheral vascular disease (PVD).
PVD refers to diseases of the blood vessels outside of the heart, such as those that carry blood to the brain, legs, arms, stomach or kidneys.
It occurs when arteries narrow or clog. People often refer to this as hardening of the arteries.
Studies estimate that only half of those with PVD are seeing a doctor for treatment.
Providence Medical Center has one of the area’s only surgical teams devoted solely to diagnosing and treating vascular diseases.
