Ultrasound
Varicose veins are easily recognized by an experienced physician. However, deeper underlying vein problems may be present that are not visible on the skin surface. Therefore, the clinical examination is generally complemented by ultrasound evaluation. The ultrasound evaluation documents the severity of the venous disorder, and helps to determine a treatment plan.
X-Rays
Radiation Therapy
The center, located on the first floor of the Baptist Health Medical Pavilion (3900 Kresge Way) features hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) which can be used to treat wounds that have shown no improvement in four weeks of conventional treatment in addition to certain infections of the bone and skin, damaged tissue from radiation therapy, skin grafts that aren’t taking well and brown recluse spider bites.

General Surgery
A. A vascular surgeon is a specialist who cares for patients with diseases that affect the arteries, veins, and lymphatic systems exclusive of the heart and intracranial (within the brain) circulations. Hardening of the arteries or atherosclerosis is a common cause of vascular disease. Specialists in this field perform open operations, endovascular catheter-based procedures, and non-invasive vascular testing and interpretations. Common problems treated include stroke prevention by managing arterial blockages in the neck and upper chest, revascularization of upper and lower limbs for poor circulation, management of aneurysms such as occur in the abdomen and elsewhere, vascular trauma, and varicose veins. Treatment also includes angioplasty—stenting of arterial blockages, repair of abdominal aneurysms by less-invasive endovascular techniques—as well as medical management of vascular disorders. Vascular surgeons are board certified in general surgery and then complete additional training and testing in vascular surgery.
Wound Care
The Wound Care Center at Surgical Care Associates… was honored in 2011 with Diversified Clinical Services’ Center of Distinction Award. Criteria for the award include meeting or exceeding quality standards for patient healing plus patient satisfaction at 92 percent or above.
Gangrene
In severe peripheral artery disease, you may develop painful sores on your toes or feet. If the circulation in your leg does not improve, these ulcers can start as dry, gray, or black sores, and eventually become dead tissue (called gangrene).
Vascular Surgery
Louisville’s Surgical Care Associates Vascular Surgery Team is among the first in the nation to offer fenestrated endografts for treating complex abdominal aortic aneurysms, and the only hospital in the area currently doing so. Recently FDA-approved, the Zenith Fenestrated AAA Endovascular Graft by Cook Medical offers a minimally invasive treatment option for patients whose aneurysm anatomy is incompatible with existing devices. This will enable treatment of 15 to 20 percent more AAA patients who previously were ineligible for traditional endovascular repair. “This represents the next step forward in minimally invasive aneurysm therapy and the biggest advance within the last five years,” says Dr. Thomas Bergamini.
