When it comes to PAD, early recognition saves lives. 🚨
Common warning signs include:

• Leg pain when walking
• Numbness or weakness in the legs
• Slow-healing wounds on the feet or toes

Too often, people dismiss these as “just aging.” But these may be signals of serious circulation problems. Don’t wait, seek care early.

📅 Don’t wait — schedule a vascular evaluation if you notice these symptoms.

Research shows that diets rich in plant-based foods, omega-3s, and antioxidants can lower inflammation and improve circulation.

Think Mediterranean diet:
🌿 Olive oil over butter
🐟 Salmon over processed meats
🍇 Berries over sugary snacks

A heart-healthy diet isn’t just good for your heart , it protects your arteries, too. For those at risk of PAD, nutrition plays a crucial role in managing symptoms and preventing progression.

✅ Load up on fiber-rich fruits and veggies
✅ Choose lean proteins and whole grains
✅ Cut back on sodium and unhealthy fats

Small daily changes lead to long-term vascular health. What’s your go-to healthy swap?
🥄 Start small...one healthy swap a day can protect your circulation. Ask your doctor if you need dietary guidance tailored to PAD.

Think vein treatments are just cosmetic? Think again.

Behind every leg cramp, ankle swelling, or varicose vein is a patient tired of feeling uncomfortable, self-conscious, or limited in their daily life.

💡 The journey often looks like this:
1️⃣ Initial consultation
2️⃣ Non-invasive vein ultrasound
3️⃣ Customized treatment plan
4️⃣ Outpatient, often pain-free procedure
5️⃣ Back to walking comfortably, often the same week!

🦵 Whether you're dealing with chronic vein issues or early signs, treatment today is simpler, faster, and more effective than ever before.

✨ Let us walk you through it...literally!

You don’t need a medical degree to bring up your concerns.
If your legs ache, swell, feel heavy, or change color, it’s time to say something.

👟 Vascular conditions can start quietly but worsen quickly. The key is early detection and that starts with YOU.

Here’s what helps:
📋 Make a quick list of any recurring symptoms
📸 Snap a photo if swelling or discoloration appears
🗓 Don’t wait! Book an appointment and share what you’re feeling

💬 It’s not “bothering the doctor.” It’s taking care of your health.

✅ Let’s make your next visit count. We’re here to listen.

Many people live with numbness, swelling, or leg pain and chalk it up to aging or inactivity, but these symptoms could signal a vascular issue.
The first step? Start the conversation.

🗣 Here’s how to make it easier:

– Write down your symptoms and when they occur
– Don’t minimize how often or how painful they are
– Ask directly: “Could this be related to my circulation?”

Your doctor is there to help, but your voice part of the appointment!
💡 When you speak up about symptoms, we can get ahead of serious conditions like Peripheral Artery Disease or venous insufficiency.
