Why Minimally Invasive Vascular Care Is Central to Our Mission

Why Minimally Invasive Vascular Care Is Central to Our Mission

At Heart Vascular & Leg Center, we believe life should be lived with less pain and more freedom.
That’s the inspiration that drives us every single day in Bakersfield to help people reclaim the little things in life, like walking outside, climbing stairs or just being with the ones they love.
Any routine can quickly turn into a source of stress if your legs begin hurting, swelling, or just don’t feel right. That’s why we offer minimally invasive vascular care.
It’s at the heart of providing health care for our community!

What Makes Minimally Invasive Care Different?

For a long time, fixing the problems with your veins also meant tough surgeries, overnight hospital stays and just weeks to recover.

At our practice, we do things a little differently because we think you deserve better.

  • Tiny incisions and gentle techniques
  • Most patients only need a simple bandage after their procedure
  • Detailed imaging to pinpoint problems the first time
  • Most treatments are performed here and not in a hospital
  • Same-day procedures with a faster recovery, less pain, and fewer risks as compared to old-style surgeries
  • It doesn’t even involve an overnight stay; you go home on the same day.

 Our goal is to have you go back to your life, not have it on hold for weeks at a time.

Patients who have suffered for years with pain and problems in their legs tell us they wish they had come sooner. We help a large number of people find renewed hope and comfort.

Common Issues We Treat

You don’t need to “just deal with” leg discomfort or changes you notice in your skin. Every day, we help people with:

  • Permanently swollen ankles, calves, or feet
  • Sores, cuts, or wounds that are slow to heal
  • Numbness, tingling, or burning in the legs
  • Veins under the skin look larger and twisted together
  • Unusual red, blue, or dark patches

Most of the above issues relate to circulation in your legs. Once we have diagnosed it clearly, then we will talk to you about the treatment options that suit your lifestyle.

Some of the treatments you may learn about at our facility:

  • Angiograms and angioplasty to unblock arteries
  • Atherectomy (safely removing built-up plaque)
  • Minimally invasive treatments for varicose and spider veins
  • Complete office examinations with same-day clear feedback

Your Experience Matters A Lot

Going to the doctor can feel intimidating; frustrating experiences in the past only make it so. We keep it simple, respectful, and all focused on your goals.

Here’s what patients often mention after leaving their visits:

  • Friendly and supportive staff from the get-go
  • Clear explanations in plain language
  • Helpful advice
  • No pressure, just honest help
  • Care that respects your schedule and what’s really important to you

If you’re feeling pain, discomfort, swelling, or fatigue in your legs, or any such combination, don’t sit back and wait to feel better! The first step often is that easy: a brief conversation.
