Arterial Conditions & Treatments

By one of Chicago’s top vascular surgeons, John Golan, MD

Unlike many vascular surgeons who now focus exclusively on the treatment of varicose veins and spiders veins, Dr. Golan also has an active practice for the treatment of arterial conditions. For over 25 years, Dr. Golan has been well known throughout the Chicago area for his expertise in all facets of vascular surgery, including the treatment of artery problems such as:

• Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
• Peripheral Arterial Disease
• Carotid Artery Disease
• Dialysis Access

These days many arterial endovascular surgery procedures are less invasive and shorten the length of hospitalization. Based on your physical examination and then diagnostic imaging, Dr. Golan determines exactly what type of arterial procedure is best for you. Sometimes arterial testing can be done right in the office, and North Shore Vascular has its own Vascular Lab. Then as necessary, most artery procedures are performed at one of these excellent Chicago area hospitals where Dr. Golan is an attending physician:

• Evanston Hospital
• Highland Park Hospital
• Glenbrook Hospital
• NorthShore University HealthSystem
