We bring together in one location a team of experts from interventional cardiology, interventional radiology, cardiovascular medicine, vascular medicine, and vascular surgery. Few other centers in the nation offer this coordinated level of care. Our mortality rates are among the lowest in the country, even after factoring in the high volume of complex cases we handle.

Our Comprehensive Vascular Care Program encompasses:

• Diagnostic Vascular Unit: This is a full-service, ICAVL-accredited, clinical diagnostic laboratory that performs noninvasive ultrasound studies for venous and arterial diseases. Our labs perform approximately 2,100 tests every month, including both inpatient and outpatient procedures.
• Venous Health Program: We offer complete care for a wide variety of vein issues, including deep vein thrombosis, varicose veins, venous insufficiency, spider veins, and problems with single leg swelling. A single resource for the treatment of venous disease.
• Vascular Interventions and Surgery: If your vascular condition requires surgery, your physician may refer you to our clinic. We have expertise in a variety of techniques and treatments, including angioplasty and stent placement, bypass grafting and angiography. We offer minimally invasive surgery options almost exclusively, which allow  shorter hospital stays and faster recovery times. We have even pioneered new techniques for the treatment of carotid artery disease.
• Michigan Lower Extremity Services (MiLES) Clinic: If your vascular condition leads to complicated foot disease, our multidisciplinary foot clinic—featuring providers from podiatry, vascular surgery, infectious disease, occupational and physical therapy—offers a comprehensive approach to managing foot disease within University of Michigan Health.

With everything available at one location you can get a complete workup and, if necessary, get surgery within a few days of coming into our center.
