The first visit includes a vascular exam (checking pulses, blood pressure in legs, skin condition) and a review of your imaging (ultrasound, CT angiography). The surgeon will explain the condition, its severity, and whether intervention is recommended. Many vascular conditions can be monitored initially, with surgery or endovascular treatment reserved for when the condition progresses or causes significant symptoms.
Ask which hospital system your new doctor is affiliated with before your first visit. Referrals within UCLA Health, Cedars-Sinai, or Keck stay inside those networks, and crossing between them can mean starting over with new patient paperwork.
