Vascular Surgery at The Health Suite Leicester

Vascular surgery is a specialised medical service that focuses on taking care of the body’s blood vessels, including arteries, veins, and the lymphatic system. These vessels are important for keeping us healthy by making sure that oxygen and nutrients are delivered to every part of the body, while waste products are efficiently removed. When these vessels are damaged or diseased, it can lead to serious health problems, ranging from chronic pain to life-threatening conditions like strokes or aneurysms.

At The Health Suite Leicester, our vascular surgery team consists of highly skilled professionals trained in diagnosing and treating a wide range of vascular conditions. They use advanced imaging techniques and the latest surgical methods to provide personalised care for each patient.

Here’s how our vascular surgery services can help:

• Consultation for Vascular Health: Our first step is a comprehensive check-up to evaluate your vascular system. This involves looking at your medical background, conducting a physical examination, and performing precise tests such as ultrasounds. After analysing these findings, we develop a personalised plan for you, which might involve adjusting your lifestyle, taking medication, or undergoing surgery.
• Treatment for Varicose Veins: Varicose veins may lead to unpleasant sensations such as leg pain, swelling, and a heavy feeling. Our specialists provide treatments including sclerotherapy, laser treatments, and more complex procedures like vein ablation or removal. These treatments not only enhance the appearance of your legs but also alleviate discomfort and reduce the risk of further issues.
• Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD): PAD happens when the arteries become narrower, which reduces the blood flow to your arms and legs. This can cause pain, numbness, and serious problems. Our experts provide treatments that include lifestyle changes, medicines, and procedures such as angioplasty, stenting, or bypass surgery. These treatments are designed to improve blood flow and enhance your quality of life.
• Carotid Artery Disease: The carotid arteries in your neck provide blood to your brain. If they get blocked, you are at higher risk for a stroke. Our surgeons use procedures like carotid endarterectomy or stenting to remove these blockages, which helps prevent strokes and protect your brain health.
• Aneurysm Disease: An aneurysm is a swelling in the wall of a blood vessel that can be dangerous if it bursts. Our team is skilled in fixing aneurysms using either standard surgery or less invasive methods such as endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Finding and treating an aneurysm early is important to avoid serious health issues.

Besides treating aneurysms, our vascular surgeons at The Health Suite Leicester also handle other vascular problems, such as long-term poor blood flow in veins, lymphatic diseases, and vascular issues caused by diabetes. Our aim is not only to treat current health problems but also to prevent new ones by offering regular check-ups, educating patients, and providing ongoing care.

At The Health Suite Leicester, we focus on providing complete, personalised care for vascular issues. If you require a simple, fast-healing treatment or a more involved surgical operation, our team is dedicated to enhancing your well-being and lifestyle by ensuring your circulation is in excellent shape.
