Summary

  • I started the St. Louis Vascular Surgical Specialist, PC in to expand my reach to the local community and break free from the restrictions of a “System.” I specialize in complex, open and endovascular, arterial and venous surgery.

    I place an emphasis in complex limb salvage.
    I am developing a new technique for the safe recanulzation of central venous stenosis.
