The Vascular Medicine Clinic incorporates a comprehensive approach in evaluating, diagnosing and treating peripheral artery disease. Patients are educated about their condition, learning the importance of reducing risk factors such as smoking, diabetes, high cholesterol and high blood pressure.

For some patients, instructions and participation in a customized walking program can improve peripheral artery disease symptoms, and some of these services are available through the Cardiac Rehabilitation Clinic. Accurate and timely diagnostic testing and appropriate intervention are integral components of the program.
