Peripheral Artery Disease is Common but Often Goes Untreated

 

Peripheral Artery Disease, PAD, causes blockages in the arteries that lead to the body's organs. It can lead to coronary artery disease, causing strokes and heart attacks. People over the age of 65, diabetics and smokers over the age of 50 are most at risk. 

Dr. Yazan Ghosheh offers treatment for Peripheral Artery Disease and encourages people to take off their socks when they visit their primary care doctor and ask that their feet be examined for signs of peripheral artery disease.
