PAD Treatment in Long Island, NY

Peripheral Artery Vascular Treatment in Long Island, NY

If you notice that your legs are cramping every time you climb the stairs, go for a walk or at night, you may be living with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Other common symptoms of peripheral artery disease (PAD) are leg numbness and tingling, open sores, slow-growing toenails, leg discoloration and loss of hair on the legs. While these symptoms may seem annoying, they can become a lot more serious without treatment. Open sores can become gangrene, which can lead to amputation or even death. 

The problem with PAD is that it happens when the arteries leading to your legs become clogged with plaque. This means there’s less room for blood to flow easily through the arteries. Over time, PAD only gets worse. 

That’s why USA Vascular Centers has three Long Island peripheral artery disease centers that specialize in treating this condition. Our Long Island vascular specialists can help educate you about PAD and provide screenings for at-risk groups. 

As highly-skilled Long Island vascular doctors, they specialize in performing minimally invasive treatments to reduce symptoms, improve the quality of your life, and help prevent dangerous complications. Come see us at one of our Long Island PAD treatment locations today.

Minimally Invasive PAD Treatments in Long Island

It wasn’t too long ago that the only treatments available for PAD were major surgical procedures with long recovery time. Now, our Long Island vascular specialists use minimally invasive techniques to widen narrowed arteries non-surgically. 

Each of the three main procedures performed at our vascular health care centers in Long Island is done in our state-of-the-art, onsite cath labs. Your experienced Long Island vascular doctor will perform a relatively pain-free procedure that doesn’t require general anesthesia or stitches. After inserting a catheter in your groin area, Long Island vascular specialist can perform three procedures: 

• Angioplasty
• Stent placement
• Atherectomy 

Each of these treatments typically lasts between 30 to 45 minutes. You can plan to be in the office for about two hours total on the day of your Long Island PAD treatment. Our Long Island vascular specialists recommend you bring a friend or family member along to drive you home afterward. The local sedative used can make you feel drowsy. After a few days of recovery at home, you’ll feel ready to tackle life with renewed energy.
