Vascular Medicine is a specialist medical service focused on diagnosing and managing diseases of the blood vessels—particularly complex aortic conditions, genetic vascular syndromes, inflammatory vascular disease, and cardiovascular risk in high-complexity patients. The clinic provides longitudinal surveillance, risk reduction, and multidisciplinary coordination, including pre- and post-operative pathways where appropriate.

At My Heart Cardiology, our vascular health services are led by:
