Our Specialised Treatments
The diseases related to peripheral arteries, veins and lymphatics form the crux of Vascular & Endovascular surgery. Vascular specialists at CARE Hospitals help patients in preventing and treating vascular diseases by bringing preventive, medical, surgical and endovascular services to the table. The expert vascular team at CARE Hospitals, working since 20 years, is perhaps the largest in the country. It comprises eight vascular surgeons and five interventional radiologists. These specialists have come together after garnering experience in India, Japan, UK and USA. Based on the patient’s clinical condition and the best options available, the experts offer appropriate therapy.
Patients are generally evaluated with duplex scan during clinical assessment in the outpatient clinic. The vascular group is supported by other specialties, anaesthesia and critical care teams, delivering excellent patient experience, every time.
