Our Areas of Expertise

Angioplasty

Angioplasty is a minimally-invasive procedure that can help improve blood flow to your heart by widening narrowed or blocked arteries. This can alleviate symptoms such as chest pain and decrease your risk of heart attack. In some cases, angioplasty may be necessary to prevent further damage to your heart. While no surgery is without risk, our team is dedicated to providing you with the highest level of care and support throughout your procedure and recovery.

Venography

If you’ve been diagnosed with a venous condition or suspect that you may have one, your doctor may recommend venography. Venography is a diagnostic test that can help detect and evaluate problems in the veins of your lower extremities. It is a relatively safe and minimally invasive procedure that can provide your doctor with important information that he or she needs to make an accurate diagnosis and develop an effective treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

Venous Mapping

Venous mapping is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that uses high-frequency ultrasound to visualize veins in the body. It can be essential in identifying any underlying venous issues that could lead to complications. By creating a map of the veins, this procedure can identify any blockages or abnormalities that may be impacting your circulation. Early detection and treatment of these issues through venous mapping can prevent serious conditions from arising and improve the overall health of your veins.

Enhanced Fistula Maturation Using Novel Techniques

Enhanced Fistula Maturation is a surgical procedure that is recommended for individuals experiencing kidney disease. It is a critical procedure that uses novel techniques to promote the development of an effective and long-lasting access point to dialysis. Surgery for Enhanced Fistula Maturation helps the patient to achieve an optimal level of access, which is necessary for efficient dialysis treatment. This surgery is particularly important for those patients that have struggled with unsuccessful prior surgeries.

Catheter/Port Insertion, Removal, Exchange and Repair

Catheter/Port insertion, removal, exchange, and repair is a standard procedure that requires surgical intervention. However, it is essential to understand that you might need these procedures for different reasons. While insertion would be necessary to gain access to veins or in some cases artery, removal may be necessary if the catheter or port has served its purpose or if the site has become infected. Regular exchange may be recommended to prevent any complication that may arise due to an old or damaged catheter or port. During repair, the surgeon will fix any complications with the catheter or port, including damage to the catheter or port or surrounding tissues.

PD Catheter Insertion, Removal, Exchange and Repair

PD catheter insertion, removal, exchange, and repair are necessary procedures for individuals with end-stage renal disease who require peritoneal dialysis. A PD catheter is a small flexible tube that is inserted into the abdomen and provides a direct line for the dialysis fluid to be introduced and removed. Without proper insertion or maintenance of the PD catheter, patients may experience fluid build-up and complications. When a catheter needs to be removed, exchange, or repaired, it should be done by a qualified healthcare professional with experience in PD catheter placement and maintenance.

Fistula and Graft Declot

If you have been diagnosed with a Fistula and Graft Declot, you may be wondering why surgical intervention is necessary. While it can be daunting to consider undergoing surgery, it is important to understand the potential benefits. The purpose of a Fistula and Graft Declot surgery is to clear any blockages in the vein accesses used in dialysis treatment. This helps ensure that blood flow is adequate, allowing for successful and efficient treatment. Without this surgery, you may experience discomfort, infection, and potentially even the need for additional surgeries down the line.

Fistulagram

A Fistulagram can help identify any complications or abnormalities associated with the fistula, enabling your healthcare provider to provide a carefully planned and individualized treatment plan. It uses X-ray imaging to examine the area around the fistula and identify any issues such as blockages or leaks. By undergoing this procedure, you can take a crucial step towards resolving your condition and achieving a better quality of life.

Stents

Stents are small, expandable mesh tubes that are placed inside narrowed arteries or blood vessels to improve blood flow to the heart, brain, or other areas of the body. This can be a crucial intervention for those suffering from cardiovascular disease, allowing them to resume their daily lives without the risk of a heart attack or stroke. They can be necessary especially if you are struggling with chest pain or have experienced a cardiac event in the past.

Coils

Coils are small devices that are used to prevent blood clots from forming in blood vessels. While they can be effective in reducing the risk of serious health complications, there are certain cases where surgery may be required to properly place and secure the coils. So why would you need surgery for coils? Well, there are a few reasons. In some cases, the location of the coils may be difficult to reach without surgery. Alternatively, the coils may need to be positioned in a specific way to maximize their effectiveness.

Ultrasonography

Ultrasonography, also known as ultrasound, is a diagnostic imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to capture images of internal organs and tissues. By doing so, it helps to detect and diagnose several medical conditions, including heart disease, cancer, and gallstones, among others. Ultrasonography is a safe and effective procedure that will provide your healthcare provider with invaluable information about your health status. Plus, by addressing any potential health concerns early on, you can take proactive steps to prevent more serious medical issues down the line.
