Vascular & Endovascular Surgery
Vascular & Endovascular Surgery
Arteries, veins and lymphatics — diagnosed with imaging, treated with open surgery or minimally invasive endovascular technique, whichever the anatomy actually calls for.
Varicose Veins
Rope-like veins, aching legs by evening, ankle swelling or skin discolouration usually mean the valves in the leg veins have stopped closing properly.

Read more VascularPulmonary Embolism

Read more VascularDiabetic Foot Ulcers

Not all joint pain is the same disease.
Read more RheumatologyAnkylosing Spondylitis
Back pain in a young adult that is worse after rest, wakes them in the second half of the night and eases with movement is inflammatory until proven otherwise.

Skin tightening on the fingers, colour changes in the cold and reflux are the combination that should prompt testing for systemic sclerosis — early, while organ involvement can still be screened for.
Read more RheumatologyRaynaud’s Phenomenon

Read more RheumatologyChikungunya Arthritis
