Dr. Brink and Dr.
Carlon are peripheral vascular surgeons specializing
in the treatment of arterial and venous disorders of
the body. Although this encompasses a wide range of
diseases, typical examples of artery problems include:
atherosclerotic blockages of the arteries in the neck,
arms, abdomen, pelvis and legs as well as aneurysms
(dilated arteries) over the same distribution.
Arterial
disease treatments are designed to reduce the risk of
stroke, decrease pain and limb loss from lack of blood
flow, and reduce the risk aneurysm clotting or rupture.
Vein disorders include primarily varicose veins and
deep vein insufficiency and treatment helps decrease
pain, swelling, discoloration and poor wound healing.
