So many fabulous changes at Southern Vascular and Foot Rescue. We are expanding. Our newest locations are now open in Batesville and Olive Branch, Mississippi. We have a new doctor, Dr. Omar Davis, joining the team.

And, of course, we have a new name and logo to announce our focus on rescuing feet from PAD-related amputations in Mississippi, Tennessee, and Kentucky. In this photo, Dr. Thomas Hodgkiss and Dr. Omar Davis are showing their interpretation of the (green) PAD patient in our new logo. How do you think they did?

Today is World Hypertension Day! Hypertension is present in 35–55% of patients diagnosed with PAD. The increased force of high blood pressure can damage artery walls, leading to plaque buildup and limiting blood flow to the lower legs, feet, and toes.

Patients with PAD need to manage their high blood pressure, or it will accelerate the progression of PAD, symptoms, and long-term risk. PAD patients with high blood pressure have a higher risk of heart attack, stroke, and PAD-related amputations. Mississippi is currently #1 in the nation for PAD-related amputations, so early intervention is critical. Southern Vascular and Foot Rescue is a leading provider of PAD diagnosis and treatment in Mississippi, Tennessee, and Kentucky. Visit our website at SouthernVascularandFootRescue.com to learn more.
