Welcome to the Division of Vascular & Endovascular Surgery

"Our outpatient office is designed to offer our patients prompt clinical evaluation with the most advanced diagnostic tests and state-of-the-art procedure rooms for minimally invasive office-based procedures. We have expanded our facility to include an outpatient angiography suite for diagnostic and therapeutic endovascular interventions. Our outstanding team extends far beyond this building, and this center is designed to offer patients a multidisciplinary approach to treatment of any vascular condition. By delivering care in this manner, patients receive proactive management, timely interventions, and are able to maintain a quality of life that would have been otherwise compromised. We pride ourselves in not only delivering outcomes that are among the best in the nation, but in treating each patient with a thorough, timely diagnosis and an individualized treatment plan that helps control risk factors, prevent emergencies, and ultimately save lives." Apostolos K. Tassiopoulos, MD, Chairman of the Department of Surgery and Chief of the Vascular and Endovascular Surgery Division.
