Varicose veins, diabetic foot and circulation problems

Vascular Surgery

In short

Vascular surgery at Sreshta Multi Speciality Hospitals treats varicose veins, diabetic foot complications, non healing ulcers and arterial circulation problems. Dr. Dattatreya C V N M holds a DrNB in Vascular Surgery and manages both the surgical and the day to day wound care side of these conditions.

Two problems fill this department, and both are getting more common. Varicose veins in people who stand all day, and diabetic foot in patients whose sugars have run high for years without them realising the damage it was doing to the circulation in their legs.

Diabetic foot in particular is worth catching early. A small ulcer that gets proper attention heals. The same ulcer ignored for three months can end in an amputation. Any diabetic patient with a wound below the ankle that has not healed in two weeks should be seen.

Treatments offered

Procedures we perform here

What each one involves is explained to you before anything is scheduled, along with what it costs and what the recovery looks like.

Laser ablation for varicose veins

Walk in and walk out, no long incision

Diabetic foot debridement and wound care

Structured dressing and follow up

Doppler assessment of legs

To map veins and check arterial flow

AV fistula creation

Access for patients starting dialysis

Limb salvage as the goal

In diabetic foot the aim is always to save the foot. Early debridement, the right antibiotic and restoring blood flow decide the outcome.

Varicose vein laser treatment

Endovenous laser closes the faulty vein through a needle puncture. Most patients walk out and return to work within days.

Managed with our diabetes team

Wound care alone does not heal a diabetic ulcer if the sugars stay high. Both are handled together in one hospital.
