Vascular Surgery
MarinHealth has the only comprehensive Vascular Surgery Program in Marin County. Our robust program takes a holistic approach to the treatment of vascular disease, including prevention and the evaluation and management of risk factors. Treatment plans are tailored to an individual’s health, age, and lifestyle. Depending on what is best for the patient, we can operate traditionally through open surgery, percutaneously using catheters (endovascular), or using a hybrid combination of both techniques. A limb preservation procedure at MarinHealth may include the participation of specialists in vascular surgery, wound care, infectious disease, plastic surgery, and podiatry. We offer the latest, most advanced open and endovascular technologies.

Limb Preservation
MarinHealth’s Limb Preservation Program brings together vascular surgery, podiatry, wound care, and other specialties to provide coordinated care for people with complex foot and leg conditions. If you have peripheral artery disease, a non-healing wound, complications related to diabetes, or other conditions that put your feet or legs at risk, our goal is to help you heal, stay mobile, and maintain your independence.
Our Team
Our multidisciplinary team is remarkably collaborative. Vascular surgery,
interventional radiology, and interventional cardiology specialists hold
monthly interdisciplinary case conferences. Our interventional and vascular
teams work together to perform innovative multidisciplinary procedures.
Depending on what's best for the patient, we can operate traditionally
through open surgery, endovascularly using catheters, or through a hybrid
combination of techniques. A limb salvage procedure at MarinHealth may
include the participation of specialists in vascular surgery, wound care,
infectious disease, plastic surgery, and podiatry.
