Vascular Medicine

Vascular medicine seeks to offer solutions to any condition that affects your circulatory system, such as peripheral artery disease (PAD) or deep vein thrombosis (DVT). At Cardiac Associates of North Jersey, our patients have access to a holistic approach that integrates medication management, minimally invasive procedures, and lifestyle changes.

With our advanced, on-site imaging techniques, we are able to precisely identify the extent of damage in any blood vessels, veins, and arteries. Our first-rate team and state-of-the-art equipment ensure only the best treatment outcomes for our patients. 

Some of the vascular conditions our clinicians specialize in include but are not limited to:

• Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD): This is a lower limb peripheral arterial disease that can be defined as the narrowing of the arteries in your legs or arms. This narrowing usually occurs due to an accumulation of cholesterol and fats in the arteries, making it hard for oxygen-rich blood to reach the limbs (peripherals).
• Varicose Veins: These are veins that are enlarged, twisted, and filled with too much blood. When the valves weaken or the vein walls lose their tone, blood collects in the vein and causes the ballooning effect of varicose veins.
• Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT): Thrombosis occurs when a blood clot forms and prevents the proper flow of blood through your circulatory system. The clots that form in the larger veins are called DTV.
• Aneurysms: An aneurysm occurs when an area of the artery wall is weakened, creating a bulge that can rupture the blood vessel if it protrudes too far. 

Vascular conditions need a comprehensive and supportive approach beyond clinical solutions. From diagnosis to postoperative care, our medical philosophy aims to provide guidance through every step of your vascular treatment. 

Our comprehensive vascular medicine services offer attentive, personalized internal medicine care, annual wellness visits, on-site imaging, and minimally invasive procedures. 

The full range of our practice goes beyond just in-office care. If you ever have any concerns about your treatment plan, notice unexpected symptoms, or need any supportive guidance, our team will always be ready to help out.

At Cardiac Associates of North Jersey, we firmly believe in the power of building intimate relationships with our patients and their families. For over 40 years, we have created deep alliances with our New Jersey community, offering effective solutions to a wide range of vascular conditions. 

By choosing us as your healthcare provider, you are starting a lifetime partnership dedicated to your well-being. 

We pride ourselves in collaborating with a deeply experienced team that shares the same commitment to delivering outstanding vascular and cardiac care. 

Our clinicians, Navin Budwani & John Lee have extensive expertise in complex coronary, peripheral vascular, and vein and peripheral arterial interventions and other similar vascular conditions.

Our evidence-based treatments use the latest advancements in vascular medicine to provide you with only the best solutions available. With an early return to routine activities and less disruptive procedures, minimally invasive vascular medicine offers life-saving results while prioritizing your safety and comfort. 

Non-intensive-surgical vascular treatments promote shorter recovery time, and less pain, with the same successful outcomes.

The cutting-edge vascular treatments we perform offer effective solutions with minimal health disruption. These include procedures like atherectomy, angioplasty, stenting, thrombolysis, and varicose vein treatment, among others. 

We offer multiple minimally invasive solutions to correct blood vessel narrowing and occlusion. Atherectomy helps remove the plaque located within the blood vessels, while angioplasty clears out space with a tiny balloon. 

Stents, on the other hand, help open a weakened or narrowed vessel by placing a small mesh tube inside it. 

Thrombosis and other clotting conditions are treated with a catheter-directed thrombolysis. This treatment offers a minimally invasive solution to the dangerous clots that restrict blood flow in veins and arteries. With less downtime and faster recoveries, thrombolysis helps effectively reduce vein narrowing and painful swelling. 

Our aesthetic and vascular medicine approach offers spider vein laser treatment to help remove damaged veins. This laser transmits photons that are later absorbed by the blood cells, helping to shrink and eventually dissolve the damaged blood vessels. 

At Cardiac Associates of North Jersey, your heart and vascular wellness is our top priority. We have offered superior cardiovascular health to our North Jersey community for over 40 years and continue with our commitment to providing unparalleled vascular medicine and cardiology care today.
