Consultation with a Vascular Surgeon

Angiology and Vascular surgery is a medical-surgical speciality dedicated to the study, prevention, clinical and instrumental diagnosis and treatment of vascular, arterial, venous and lymphatic pathologies.

The most common medical problems that can be treated in the angiology consultation with the specialist are the following: varicose veins, aortic aneurysm, diabetic foot, intermittent claudication, lymphoedema, vascular malformations, carotid stenosis or leg ulcers.

In addition to diagnosing or treating a specific medical problem, another reason for seeking a consultation with a Vascular Surgeon is to obtain a second opinion, i.e. a patient has already been diagnosed with a specific problem by another Specialist in Angiology and Vascular Surgery and needs to know the medical recommendation of a different specialist.

The age of the patients who attend the Angiology and Vascular Surgery Consultations is wide, ranging from young patients who suffer from problems such as the development of varicose veins, as well as older patients who require a periodic review of their vascular issue.

Once in the doctor’s office, the consultation will begin as follows:

• Medical interview: The patient explains to the Vascular Surgeon what his or her problem is, what is causing pain, the reason why he or she needs a check-up or a second opinion on a previous diagnosis, etc. At the same time, the doctor may ask other questions related to the problem.
• Review of medical tests and reports: It is common for the patient to come with a diagnosis made by another specialist, an ultrasound scan (Eco-doppler) among other tests, which are checked by the specialist to learn more about the patient’s case to assess the problem and possible treatment.
• Physical examination: In some cases, depending on the reason for the consultation, the Vascular Surgeon will carry out a physical examination of the problematic area.
• Diagnosis and treatment: After checking all the information presented to the specialist, the specialist may confirm a definitive diagnosis or require additional medical tests. In some cases, the specialist will prescribe a treatment for the problem, either by prescribing medication or indicating some recommendations for the daily life; in other cases, it is possible that more medical tests may be necessary in order to make a definitive diagnosis, in this case should contact Operarme so that we can provide you with preferential prices for diagnostic tests. The doctor will make a report of the consultation with his/her final assessment and medical recommendations.

If a second consultation is necessary to control how the treatment is working or to see the evolution of the problem in case it gets worse, please contact us so that we can arrange it for you.

In any case, our patient service team will help you with any doubts or questions you may have after the consultation.

The duration of the consultation varies depending on the problem the patient has. Operarme recommends that before the consultation you prepare a list of questions for the specialist, so once the consultation is over, you can leave with all your doubts cleared up or with your medical problem being solved with a treatment.

Both the prescribed treatment and the request for complementary tests are subject solely to the professional opinion of the Specialist in Vascular Surgery, whom you have the consultation with.

In any case, the treatment prescribed by the doctor may be of a different nature, such as prescribing medication, indications for a change in the diet or lifestyle habits that are affecting your health problem; in some cases, surgical treatment will be the only solution to the problem.

On the other hand, if the Vascular Surgeon considers that it is necessary to carry out more diagnostic tests to complete a diagnosis of your problem, you have the option of performing the test through Operarme at preferential and fixed prices.

The most common diagnostic tests in this field are usually venous, arterial, carotid or abdominal aortic Doppler ultrasounds.
