Vascular & endovascular surgeon at Holy Spirit Hospital: what I treat
I am an MCh vascular & endovascular surgeon. At Holy Spirit Hospital I see patients with blocked or bleeding arteries, vein problems, swollen limbs and wounds that will not heal. Many of these can now be treated through a needle puncture instead of open surgery.
The conditions I treat include:
- Leg artery blockages, gangrene and diabetic foot
- Varicose veins and venous leg ulcers
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism
- Aortic aneurysms (abdominal, thoracic and iliac)
- Carotid artery narrowing and stroke prevention
- Dialysis access: AV fistula, AV graft and Permacath
- Chemoport, Hickman line and PICC line for chemotherapy
- Vascular malformations and AVMs
- Bleeding from abdominal arteries (mesenteric and GI bleeding)
- Blocked arteries to the bowel (mesenteric ischaemia)
- Coughing up blood (bronchial artery embolisation)
- Thoracic outlet syndrome and cervical rib
- Lymphedema
- Blood vessel injuries after accidents (vascular trauma)
If you need a procedure, I will explain the options and discuss where it can be done.
What to bring to the OPD
Bring any scans you already have, such as a Doppler, CT angiogram, MRI or angiography CD. Also bring recent blood reports, old discharge summaries and a list of your medicines, and tell me if you take a blood thinner.
- Varicose veins: a venous Doppler of both legs, if you had one in the last 6 months. Laser, radiofrequency and glue treatments are day-care procedures, and most patients return to work in 1 to 3 days.
- Leg pain on walking or a foot wound: any arterial Doppler or CT angiogram report, and recent sugar and HbA1c reports if you have diabetes.
- DVT: the Doppler report, and the name and dose of the blood thinner you were started on.
- Dialysis access: your latest kidney function report and a note from your nephrologist.
- Aneurysm or carotid narrowing: the CT or Doppler report that found it.
