I chose vascular surgery because it allows me to maintain an ongoing, lifelong relationship with my patients – very different from so many other surgical specialties. As a vascular specialist, one of the most important duties I am tasked with is patient education and understanding. An educated patient who understands his or her disease process is an empowered patient. I believe it’s important that individuals play an active role in understanding their diagnoses and participating in their care plans.
