Division of Vascular Surgery

Georg Steinthorsson, MD

Welcome

The past 15 years has seen incredible change in the treatment of patients with peripheral vascular disease. Less invasive alternatives to treat aneurysmal and obstructive disease, new methods of treating patients with venous disease, and non-invasive imaging of vascular pathologies have all combined to make the treatment of vascular pathologies more patient-specific and more tolerable. Here at the University of Vermont, the vascular surgical group has embraced these new technologies to improve the care we deliver. Minimizing complications and resource utilization while maximizing patient outcomes is the focus of our practice.
