Tucson Vascular Surgery was founded in 1997 by Scott S. Berman, MD with the mission of establishing a center of excellence for the care of patients in need of vascular intervention in Tucson’s west-side hospitals, while continuing to contribute to the evolution of the specialty of vascular surgery through ongoing clinical and basic science research. Our practice specialties include:
Endovascular Surgery combining principles of traditional vascular surgery with minimally invasive treatments using angioplasty and stenting. Tucson Vascular Surgery established itself as a leader in this field by placing the first endovascular grafts for aortic aneurysms in Tucson in February 2000. We continue expanding the possibilities for minimally invasive treatment of thoracic aneurysms, renal artery stenosis, lower extremity disease and carotid artery disease through our ongoing research.
