Understanding peripheral artery disease?

Jason Crowner, MD

Comprehensive, relevant and insightful conversations about health and medicine happen here… on MedStar Health Doc Talk.

By the time we reach our 40’s, about 10-million Americans have some degree of plaque build-up in the arteries, called atherosclerosis. Deposits of that plaque in the arteries can impede or block the blood flow to the legs. It’s called peripheral artery disease, or P-A-D, PAD- and you may not even know you have it. 

 To make an appointment with Jason Crowner, MD, FACS at the MedStar Heart and Vascular Institute, call: 443.444.3431.
