Vascular Surgery

MarinHealth has the only comprehensive Vascular Surgery Program in Marin County. Our robust program takes a holistic approach to the treatment of vascular disease, including prevention and the evaluation and management of risk factors. Treatment plans are tailored to an individual’s health, age, and lifestyle. Depending on what is best for the patient, we can operate traditionally through open surgery, percutaneously using catheters (endovascular), or using a hybrid combination of both techniques. A limb preservation procedure at MarinHealth may include the participation of specialists in vascular surgery, wound care, infectious disease, plastic surgery, and podiatry. We offer the latest, most advanced open and endovascular technologies.

Our Team

Our multidisciplinary team is remarkably collaborative. Vascular surgery, interventional radiology, and interventional cardiology specialists hold monthly interdisciplinary case conferences. Our interventional and vascular teams work together to perform innovative multidisciplinary procedures.
