The Vascular Center at UW Medical Center - Northwest offers a full complement of vascular services, each enhanced by the latest diagnostic and therapeutic technologies available today. With advanced-fellowship training and a multidisciplinary approach to care, this group of surgeons is uniquely equipped to tackle challenging diseases, acute and chronic alike.

We take a minimally invasive endovascular approach to peripheral artery disease.
