Endovascular Institute at Anaheim Memorial

We strive to achieve optimal patient outcomes by providing comprehensive diagnosis and minimally invasive treatment of vascular disease, including conditions affecting the renal (kidney), mesenteric (abdominal) and extremity arteries, as well as the abdominal aorta.

Compared with traditional open surgeries, our endovascular methods are lower risk and involve less discomfort and shorter hospitalizations, resulting in faster healing and rapid recovery (see comparison). We use catheter-based techniques, such as percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and stent placement to restore normal blood flow to narrowed or blocked arteries.

We offer state-of-the-art technologies, best-practice processes, a multidisciplinary team of physician experts,highly skilled clinicians and community outreach services, including:

  • Physicians specially trained in endovascular procedures, as well as open vascular surgeries
  • Beyond Basic Imaging (BBI)– a technologically advanced lab providing noninvasive lower extremity and abdominal arterial testing
  • Modern imaging facility with highly trained technicians providing:
    • Low volume contrast dye studies
    • Non-toxic carbon dioxide angiography
    • Minimally invasive angioplasty and/or stenting of amenable lesions
  • Advanced endovascular imaging suites and operating rooms equipped with leading-edge technology for minimally invasive procedures
  • Multidisciplinary case reviews, in which staff collaborate to identify the best treatment options
  • Integrated tobacco cessation program
