CLI is the end stage of peripheral artery disease (PAD). CLI is often the result of extremely damaged and often completely blocked leg arteries. Minimally Invasive Vascular works with patients who are at risk for leg amputation or who have been recommended for leg or foot amputation. We help patients prevent foot or leg amputation and/or minimize the level of foot or leg amputation. When amputation is recommended, we conduct a pre-amputation consultation.
CLI symptoms often require prompt medical attention in order to prevent or minimize the level of amputation. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, call us right away to schedule a vascular consult.
