Frequently Asked Questions About Vascular Treatment

Helpful information about vascular conditions, minimally invasive procedures, and what patients can expect during care

If you have been diagnosed with a vascular condition or are considering treatment, it’s natural to have questions. At Blue Ridge Vascular, we believe informed patients feel more confident about their care. Below are answers to some of the most common questions patients ask about vascular disease, minimally invasive procedures and recovery.

Screening may be recommended for patients with risk factors such as high blood pressure, smoking history, high cholesterol, diabetes or a history of stroke or cardiovascular disease. Early detection can help reduce the risk of stroke and other complications.

AAA screening is often recommended for men over age 65 who have a history of smoking, as well as patients with a family history of aneurysms. Screening may also be recommended if you have other vascular risk factors.

Patients experiencing symptoms such as leg pain while walking, numbness in the legs or feet, slow-healing wounds or reduced circulation may benefit from PAD screening. Early detection can help prevent complications and improve long-term vascular health.

Coverage varies depending on the procedure and your insurance provider. Many vascular treatments are covered when medically necessary. Our team will work with you to review your insurance benefits and help you understand any potential out-of-pocket costs before treatment.

Many endovascular procedures are minimally invasive and can often be performed on an outpatient basis or with a short hospital stay. Your ability to go home the same day will depend on the type of procedure and your overall health. Dr. Adams will review what to expect before your treatment.
